President Trump didn’t get the job done

Don't Rehire a Failed President — Michael R. Bloomberg

I've never been much for partisan politics. I've supported Democrats, Republicans and independents. Hell, I've actually been a Democrat, Republican and independent.

To me, elections are about people. And the two people running for president couldn't be more different.

One believes in facts. One does not. One listens to experts. The other thinks he knows everything. One looks forward, and sees strength in America's diversity. The other looks backward, and sees immigrants as enemies and white supremacists as allies.

When confronted with the biggest calamity any president has faced in the modern era, Donald Trump spent the year downplaying the threat, ignoring science and recommending quack cures — which let Covid-19 spread much faster than it should've, leaving hundreds of thousands needlessly sick or dead.

He has failed the American people catastrophically.
