Donald Trump day 1 inherited a righted ship. Yes the great ship USA was smooth sailing with a growing economy. But within 3 plus years of taking the reigns, donald has driven this ship aground. Trump has squandered his chance, lost savvy, educated cabinet members, replaced with under- qualified to no qualification lackeys.
Trump inherited a strong, growing economy and stock market and now we are heading towards 20% unemployment and huge market losses. And tax payer bailouts to rescue him and hopefully ourselves. V
The biggest blunder trump was dissolving the advanced pandemic team. Yes
Bolton pulled the trigger on this, but trump appointed and directed him.
Why is the above the biggest blunder?
It began a cascade of trump blunders creating a more damaging crisis than it should have been. The dismantling of the advanced pandemic team was the first in a series of events propagated by trump that lead our country in a series crisis involving covid 19 and a financial disaster.
Trump obviously did not recognize the value of the above mentioned pandemic team. trump then continued his devaluation of epidemiology experts and refused their advice, downplayed covid 19 severity and casually threw out hoax rhetoric. Quite frankly trump seriously hurt initial responses and poisoned the thought processes of the American citizens about covid 19.
The stock market recognized trump's flip flopping, disinformation, blundering and stocks crashed.
Trump's lack of leadership and with no handle on virus initially lead businesses, hospitals, others deciding without clear guidance: should we stay open, should we close, should we have employees stay home? Bottom line people out of work many without pay and businesses not taking in revenue has seriously damaged our economy.
Trump has a long history of squandering inherited gifts, loosing daddy's money, bankruptcy following bank loans. Business failures.
Trump's systematic destruction of our nation, our government leadership and our lifestyle:
Donald Trump has now had more turnover in his Cabinet in the first two and a half years of his presidency than any of his five immediate predecessors did in their entire first terms.
According to data collected by the Brookings Institution, the resignation of Labor Secretary Alexander Acosta marks the ninth Cabinet member to leave the Trump Administration, one more than the previous high under President George H.W. Bush.
The others who have left: Health and Human Services Secretary Tom Price, Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, Secretary of Veterans Affairs David Shulkin, Attorney General Jeff Sessions, Secretary of Defense Jim Mattis, Secretary of the Interior Ryan Zinke and Secretary of Homeland Security Kirstjen Nielsen as well as her predecessor, John Kelly, Mulvaney

The stock market: President Trump frequently points to the stock market as evidence of his
success, However, even by this measure, he lags behind President Obama.
Between President Trump’s Inauguration Day
and November 2019, the Dow Jones Average increased more than 40 percent, while over
the eight years of the Obama administration, the DJIA increased almost 150 percent – a
substantially greater pace.

Gross misjudgment': Experts say Trump's decision to disband pandemic team hindered coronavirus response
WASHINGTON—In May 2018, President Donald Trump’s biodefense preparedness adviser warned that a flu pandemic was the country’s No. 1 health security threat, and the U.S. was not prepared.
“We know that it cannot be stopped at the border,” Luciana Borio, director of medical and biodefense preparedness at the National Security Council, said at a symposium that day.
Borio left the Trump administration in 2019. Other high-level global health experts headed for the exits even earlier, after the White House dismantled the National Security Council’s global health security office.
The demise of that elite team is now under scrutiny as the Trump administration struggles to respond to the coronavirus pandemic.
“I just think it's a nasty question,” the president responded. “And when you say ‘me,' I didn't do it. ... I don't know anything about it.
Coronavirus: Did Trump's decision to nix pandemic team hinder response
Now like his numerous bankruptcies trump wants a do over.
Trump will get trillions of our tax payers dollars towards his debacle. Where could these tax payers dollars have gone if trump properly mitigated this crisis.
So i'm getting an unplanned, unpaid vacation, can't go anywhere and my reward, my stimulus- $1000.00 what a joke.
