Ben Shapiro put out a video explaining why he’s voting for Trump this year after not having voted for him in 2016. In the middle of a litany of policy successes, he said, “He’s resisted using the federal government to control everybody’s life during COVID. That’s a big thing. This is the biggest government power grab during my lifetime, and Trump refused to do it.”

Under immense pressure by the media and other Democratic operatives, at a time when nearly all global leaders were using the pandemic as an excuse to seize greater control, Trump did not.

When Dims accuse Trump of not doing much to control covid-19, can someone show me which developed country has done better than USA? Or for that matter any country? France, Spain, UK, Italy etc imposed severe lockdowns, and have death rates worse than USA.

Trump has worked tirelessly on pushing for a vaccine, which is the only real method of getting control over this virus. Shutting down economy will not do it, and will create more poverty and more social problems.

The vaccine is coming 5 times faster than other vaccine developments of the past. And even better, Trump has organized means of distribution and access on a massive scale. Would Biden have the skills and energy to do the same? Hah...sleepy Joe has accomplished nothing in 47 years of political positions of power.

Trump is going to win!
Biden is a non-entity.
The debate monitors will make sure he has to answer only the questions he has been provided with.

Yap, the questions were passed on to sleepy-Joe over the weekend and Joe is cramming down the 2 minute answers for 4 days.

“He’s resisted using the federal government to control everybody’s life during COVID. That’s a big thing."

He's approached the riots the same way, mostly resisting the temptation to federalize the response to them, except for protecting Federal property.

It's nice to see this kind of federalism. It's rare these days.

If you take the 5 most populous countries in Europe -- Germany, UK, France, Spain, and Italy -- and add in Belgium, they have almost exactly the population of the United States and significantly higher numbers (combined.)

JFK started war in Vietnam.
LBJ expanded Vietnam war.
Nixon ended Vietnam war but opened trade with China.
Nixon & Carter actively fought the cold war with USSR.
Reagan had Americans fighting in Lebanon.
Clinton bombed Yugoslavia.
Bush-43 began Iraq war.
Obama had Americans fighting and dying in middle-east.
Trump has not started any new wars or expanded existing wars. American troops are coming home as fast as possible.
