He really needs to be executed.
Partially, I’d also put a heavy consideration on worldwide trump hatred at the time as well. The knee jerk reaction of people doing the opposite if what trump did really might be what caused covid policy to drag on so long, it really locked in a base of voters for democrats and people around the world who were appalled by the idea that trump existed as president.
Falls in line with the Canadian mentality of “if America does it, it must be bad, therefore I must do the opposite to show I’m better than America”
