Know what he did before that. Downplayed and ignored covid. Claiming it would be over in a week. That no one needed to take precautions. Only after his narcissism screwed things up so badly. We're some lawmakers finally able to appeal to him and stroke his hubris enough to get him to go along with the light speed plan. And even then afterwards he did little to nothing to promote it.

You are not being downvoted for mentioning that he had a part in Project light speed. But for misrepresenting his handling of the situation.

you're not wrong. he also wanted people to stick lights up their asses and take horse pills. still, he didn't ignore it completely and despite his silly shit managed to actually be helpful overall.
