Trump’s own pollster says his repeated pandemic fuck-ups cost him the election

Donald Trump lost the 2020 election over his catastrophic failure to tackle the coronavirus pandemic, according to his own pollster. Tony Fabrizio, who has been polling the Trump campaign for years, wrote an autopsy for Trump’s campaign advisers late last year, and it has now been obtained by The Washington Post. The message is clear: the election has not been stolen, as Trump has repeatedly claimed; he just lost ground in 10 major states where voters rated the pandemic as their number one problem. The states – Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Florida, Iowa, North Carolina, Ohio, and Texas – showed overwhelming support for a mask mandate and a high approval score for Anthony Fauci. The report states that voters in those key states simply found Biden more competent to face the crisis caused by the pandemic and Trump’s passivity.
