You said, repeatedly, "...Biden inherited a global pandemic that, on election day, had no vaccine,..." (see post #49 in this thread for your first mention).  The fact is, per the NIH, the Moderna vaccine was in clinical trials as early as March 2020.  Hopefully you are smart enough to know you cannot start testing something...i.e. clinical trial...until after it is developed. Therefore your "no vaccine" comment was NOT TRUE.  There was a vaccine, it just had not received an EUA. Wording something poorly can be described as misspoken.

Addtionally, Biden didn't "inherit" anything until he took the oath of office on 1/20/21. So, when he actually "inherited" things the country was more than a month into having vaccines administered.  Even with the Trump Vaccines, there were still more COVID deaths under Biden than Trump.

Before December 1903, there was not a man-made self-propelled airplane that had ever flown.  The Wright brothers spent the four years prior to December 1903 developing and perfecting their design.   When they demonstrated to the world that their contraption could actually get off the ground and propell inself above the earth, THEN man could claim to have flown.  Not until.  

A potential vaccine was developed and testing was done on it.   When the testing was done, and that testing proved that the vaccine was effective, THEN the world had a vaccine, and not one day before.  For you to claim that the vaccine existed before the election is silly.  The Wright Brothers plane existed in their Dayton, Ohio workshop before December 1903.  The applied for a patent for their plane in March of that year, but we mark the beginning of manned self-propelled flight in December FOR GOOD REASON.

If the Moderna vaccine had taken three years of clinical trials to work out all of the kinks and finally gain FDA approval, would you STILL claim that it had "existed" during the Trump administration?  You are splitting hairs and it is unbecoming.  

And Trump didn't experience his first COVID death until the very last year of his term, and even then, none of any real signficant numbers until the spring of 2020.  Biden was elected in November while the pandemic was raging AND THERE WAS NOT YET A VACCINE AVAILABLE TO TREAT IT.  That's a fact.  

America decided they would rather have Joe Biden guide us through a deadly pandemic than they would the clown who had fumble **** the government response from the jump.  Remember the Diamond Princess?  "Bad for the numbers"?  

AND AGAIN... Joe Biden did a fine job... the USA recovered from COVID faster, better, stronger than any other nation on earth.
