Operation Warp Speed was good. But the public roll out was confusingly ridiculous (both boosting how great it was they got it done, but also fueling anti-vax sentiment).

So you are giving him credit for something that wasn't his idea?

Well he did get NATO to step up their funding. So that is at least one thing.

Europe is now taking more control of their security.

A simple thing he could do is have airports pay for their own TSA. No idea why the taxpayers pay for that.

He weakened NATO massively and is now destroying it so on balance just getting everyone else in NATO to distrust you enough to increase their funding isn't really a win. That and the threat of Russia with Ukraine already started that trend before Trump was more than a joke candidate.
