I am one of the many Americans who were amazed that Trump was able to win the election back in 2016. But after much thought and consideration, I have come to realize that back then Donald Trump recognized and harnessed the anger over racial displacement disguised as economic anxiety, of many Americans, along with their resentment of being ignored by traditional Republicans and Democrats, and then exasperated by their viscous hatred for HRC, to win the presidency.
Aside from all of Trump's many personal faults, I believe that Trump would have been re-elected if he had done just one thing right:
Succinctly: wear a face mask.....
Joking aside, I agree that if back in January, when he learned of the true potential looming disaster of the COVID-19 virus pandemic, if he had immediately responded with a serious, sensible, coordinated national effort to combat the virus spread, we would probably not have lost as many fellow citizens as we have and the virus pandemic would not have cratered his re-election bid. But his denial of its severity and subsequent mediocre and hands-off attitude, cost him the votes of many Americans, regardless of their political affiliation. Ultimately, he will have plenty of free time to ruminate on that in the coming weeks and months…

Well said. His own ineptitude caused the loss of his greatest potential triumph and chance for another term. But people don’t change just because it’s in their best interest. When faced with real threat, his true color showed and he ran away from responsibility and quickly washes his hands off of this crisis.
He was a commander of no show during most of this year when it came to helping steer the national conversation on proper protection strategies to fight the outbreak.
Time and again he upstages the scientists and pushed for unheard of cures that turned out to Be completely useless.
He can’t even bring himself to properly convince the public to use a face mask, much less social distance or avoid large gatherings.
Faced with no leadership from the very top, our country has now become the perfect breeding ground for the covid virus. We are on track to have the outbreak infect over the entire population in the very nearly future.
Will Biden help our current situation? I’m hoping he will. His priority is very different from Trump’s own. I think he will help tremendously.
As for the bogus election fraud narrative Trumps been pushing 24/7. Even a life long Republican who voted for him twice came out and said “ this has to stop”.
