Thing is, he actually did handle the initial vaccine moves about as well as he could've, apart from maybe a normal human starting earlier whereas he spent awhile mumbling about how he wouldn't let people off a cruise ship and that it would magically disappear in 2 weeks (his TACO timeline for everything in his life). But operation warp speed was the right move in broad strokes. It's only because he'd created a cadre of conspiracy cultists that he was forced to back off rather than suffer the wrath of *gasp! people not filling his botomless empty hole with their adulation 24/7.

You're right that he was handed a silver platter but the even more hilarious (sad) part is he created the platter, filled it with the finest truffles and caviar (or I suppose in his world it'd be big macs), and then as soon as one person said "boo" he threw it all in the trash and stomped off to pout in the corner like he always does as the little piss baby he is.

He's got zero capacity for conscious thought and I'd almost feel bad for him if he hadn't murdered millions of people.
