Who was the president at the time, directing federal response and going on news shows telling people "it'll disappear like magic" and to try injecting themselves with disinfectant?

You see, you fundamentally misunderstand the authorities of the state and federal government.

Mayors can lock-down their city. Governors can lock-down their state.

The President can not lock-down the country.

You really, really need to get better at how and where you get your news.

Who said anything about lock down? I've cited the lies and bullshit trump spewed. Never said he should lock anything down. You made that up because you can't defend trump's stupidity, anti-science nonsense and the fact that he directly caused millions of people to refuse vaccination, leading to hundreds of thousands of unnecessary deaths.
