When Trump admitted how serious the threat of the virus was way back in
January, he could have started talking to the nation and making
recommendations supported by the scientists.  Instead he chose to lie to
the public, saying it was just the flu and it would soon go away.  If he
had made a national recommendation for masks and social distancing back
in February/March we would not have 200,000 deaths and rising now.
Instead he downplayed the recommendations for masks, etc.  Had he just
suggested serious national policy and guidelines, many more people would
still be alive.

A good example of his lack of support for good policy is his recent
rallies where people were crowded indoors in close quarters, resulting
in infections and death for some.  When asked why he did not ask for
mask wearing, etc.  his response was "I was completely safe, well away
from anyone else", making it very clear that he cares little for his
followers and only cares about himself.
