I don't necessarily think that is true. BUT....... him saying so is brilliant because here's the deal: Either it's true.......... or the model was COMPLETELY wrong (I think it was), and the advice given the President was totally deceptive. It has to be one or the other.
spez: I think he is mocking them and daring them to correct him. lol
He knew the data was fake up front and fought it as best he could. But he’s a strategist, and the media would have literally ran him out of office had he not complied with their lockdown demands. So, he adapted, did the best he could, created a $7 trillion hole in the economy, and began fixing it, knowing the crisis would be over long before anyone else was claiming. Making it the state’s job to reopen was brilliant - the media had counted on hatred over lockdowns to be hurled towards Trump. Didn’t happen. Even Fauci has had to change his tune now. Now they are worried because they can see that economy could be roaring back before the election, truly their nightmare scenario.
Yep, he’s using their model against them either way.
I prefer to lean toward he saved many, many lives. Extrapolating from the actual number of deaths it is easy to suggest it would have been much higher under different approaches.
