Nooo. There was a ton of logistics. The military was a key part of the last mile distribution initially and for some time.

Trump is a loathsome character, but OWS was a well executed initiative.

The last mile distribution wasn’t well considered at all. Between tweets denying he lost the election he just said it would be up to the states to furnish last mile.

I think OWS had some autonomy outside of the crazy day to day bloviating.

The initial Pfizer environmental requirements were difficult to meet, and the military through the national guard were a big part of delivery.

Outside of those logistics everything was an evil shitshow.
