Trump authorized and funded OWS. Obviously he didn’t do the actual science. It’s JFK and the moon landing. JFK didn’t build the rockets or fly in them, but the project as a whole happened because of his getting behind it.
I think you are rationalizing. Biden and Trump both did terrible at dealing with Covid. OWS was one of the few things done right. It really was something like the moon program. Otherwise you can never credit or blame a politician for anything unless they are the ones personally doing the work. But that’s not what they do.
The alternative to OWS would have been to just let big pharma develop vaccines the usual way, instead of using a lot of approaches in parallel with government funding to get usable ones faster. Of course the protection from those vaccines was then pissed away under both administrations, by doing almost nothing (except during the initial lockdowns) to stop airborne spread of the virus. The Herman Cain Award is one of the most memorable legacies from that.

Not comparable to the moon mission. Letting someone else deal with a deadly disease should be not just a low bar, but the floor, for a leader.
