What's grim is you trying to group in Trump with the rest of the leaders, tbh. He is not a man struggling to solve the problem that is the pandemic, he's content with trampling over the dead and pretending it's not a problem. He is not breaking his back trying to solve the problem, he's going to lengths to deny and downplay and push a fake cure to help his son's stock portfolio.

I have sympathy for world leaders that are doing their best, there's plenty of countries that have been hit hard yet are holding their own like Japan and Korea who are right next to China, yet they've kept a hold of things through quick action and by tackling the problem head on.

Any leader that downplayed and dismissed the virus despite advance warnings is grossly incompetent and a danger to their people. Trump is the president, it's his incompetence that has led to the 200k+ deaths that the US has suffered.
