Here’s the big one: COVID-19. Trump called it a “hoax,” suggested injecting disinfectant, and held indoor rallies while hospitals overflowed. It’s like hiring a lifeguard who yells “swim harder!” while people are drowning. The United States had the highest death toll in the world, with over 400,000 deaths during his watch, despite having the best medical resources.
A jaw-dropping fact: Trump’s administration ignored a detailed pandemic playbook left by the Obama team, which specifically outlined how to handle a virus. Instead, he spent his time fighting with governors over who should buy ventilators. The result? By the time he finally took it seriously, the country was already a morgue. And he still insisted it was “under control.” You can’t make this up—unless you’re a bad screenwriter.
Impeachment and Integrity
Let’s not forget the two impeachments. The first was for pressuring Ukraine to dig up dirt on Joe Biden, which is like a boss blackmailing an employee to spy on a coworker. The second was for inciting an insurrection at the Capitol, where his own supporters attacked police while he watched Fox News for three hours. When his security called for help, he reportedly said, “I don’t care.”

That January 6 riot was the final straw for many loyalists, including his Vice President Mike Pence, who had to hide in a loading dock. Trump’s response? He praised the rioters as “very special people.” It was the political equivalent of a toddler setting fire to the playroom and then asking for a cookie. Surprising truth: More than 140 police officers were injured that day, and several later died. But Trump’s biggest worry was whether his golf score would drop the next day.
