26. If he were really in charge of it, it would come to nothing

He does not have the faintest idea how to run something like that. There are plenty of politicians who I like who shouldn't be in charge of it, but they'd know it; the more that Trump sticks his fat arse on it (beyond the name - that could be Trump - he can stretch to basic Star Trek references), the more he'll ruin it.

Thankfully, we know he's lying. He doesn't know the difference between a virus and a bacterium; he thought injecting disinfectant would be safe. I wouldn't trust him to put a bandaid on someone. He doesn't have the patience to read one page summaries of basic intelligence, let alone hear the details of alternative vaccine strategies, trials and so on. Not even Ivanka would let him run it.
