"Once again Jim champions Trumps good thing, suggesting they balance out the bad thing"

Are you mentally disabled?

I never said Trumps good outweighs the bad, or equals out the bad. I have said 100 times he's a morally bankrupt reptile and I pray he never runs for office, or even opens his mouth in public, again.

You're in denial, not me. You deny everything about him that's not horrible.

"Now a pandemic and inflation and their responses are the same …"

I never said that. YOU said Biden has zero control over inflation, because "it's global". But you only give Biden that benefit, not Trump.

But I'll say this...it's easier to prevent global inflation from impacting the US, than it would have been to keep covid out.

Here's what I mean...you can head off inflation, try to prevent it, by decreasing the money supply, raising interest rates. There are proven, reasonable things you can do to try to minimize inflation (not guaranteed to work.).

With covid, there's no way to stop it without throwing the constitution in the toilet and completeky isolating the country from teh worls at the first mention of the word "covid". Nobody was calling for that in the fall of 2019 when that would have been necessary. Despite your claims that Trump is a crazy authoritarian, he didn't order Americans into serious quarantine. Covid was probably already here before they could have done anything to prevent it from coming. And the one thing Trump did early on (travel restrictions from China) was ridiculed by the entire left, so they wouldn't have even done that.
