Why is this a Biden vs Trump issue? They both have campaigned on Covid19 relief. Just because Trump isn't unconstitutionally forcing lockdowns, testing, & contact tracing doesn't mean he isn't doing anything. Pfizer and other vaccine makers got assistance with expediting their vaccine R&D, approval, & distribution as part of Trump admin's Operation Warp Speed. https://www.hhs.gov/about/news/2020/09/16/trump-administrati...

Trump was one of Big Pharma's biggest enemies and even got them to lower the drug prices. That was a big, big no-no. So it's no surprise that they hate him so much.
