Trump is a politician by choice.  In the face of national crisis it's his job to get the hell out of the way and let people who were trained to do useful things handle it while he talks about unity and working together and other positive rhetoric.  Look at Bush after 9/11...an attack on American soil happens on his watch and he talks such a good game that (at least at first) his approval rating is up to a whopping 90% and people feel confident and unified.

Trump instead decides to use the crisis to stroke his own ego and lie and he's a one-term president because he refuses to actually learn how to effectively do his job.  The template for success had been laid out and he just did the opposite.  So ehh, I can see why people criticize his handling of covid, especially people who wanted him to not fail at being president and get a 2nd term.
