There's no reason to think that any other administration would have for even could have handled this as well as the Trump administration.

There's no reason to think otherwise either.

Well, there was some increased sense of urgency this time around, wouldn't you agree? And profit. And maybe, sure, an eased regulation that let's hope was actually unnecessary also helped speed things up significantly, but I would not know about that. If so, credit for not being completely ignorant about an unnecessary regulation in times of crisis. I'd give him that much.

On the risk of being all divisive again, I can not let this assertion stand unrefuted.
I don't refuse to give him credit because of hate. I refuse to do so for I don't really see a clear-cut reason to praise him; but for sure more importantly, I refuse to do so because Trump overall was just awful regarding this pandemic. He mocked mask-wearing, he lied about the reality of things, he claimed it is vanishing, that the US turned a corner, he implied it's harmless, used his own son and himself as an example for that, he lied about vaccine timetables, he lied about mortality, he deliberately downplayed the threat - and this is an ongoing list - and with all this recklessness he endangered many people, very much including high-risk individuals like yourself. And this is a fair statement that has nothing to do with hate.

For see, you have an additional number of deniers now, of idiots that do not wear masks, do not social distance, behave irresponsibly, party and group up and spread the virus around, and make this situation all the more dangerous and dire. And for a large part, it's because they listen to Donald Trump.
I have zero incentive to applaud him on how he handled Covid.
