Trump has almost as many deaths on his hands just from his cuts to USAID. He also has that many deaths if you count all “excess deaths” during COVID against him.
You're totally right, but things get a lot murkier when we get into secondary- and third-order effects.
Bush's economic policy of bailing out Wall Street while letting Main Street fend for itself lead to 10s or maybe 100s of thousands of excess deaths.
Bush's defunding of education created an unknowable number of excess deaths, and this undereducation was a major factor in the election of Trump.
We din't count him supporting israel?
This would also apply to Bush Biden and Obama to name.few
Yeah
Who is downvoting objective facts?
