Too bad the Trump cult is as brainwashed as many famous cults throughout history and doesn't seem to care about lies that kill.

That was his explanation for downplaying the virus. He was cheering us on so that we would not be shocked. Just fucking absurd. This is why these pressers, or at least his portion should only be aired on Fox. Only those vulnerable idiots who are glued to Fox believe that shit.

Catch 22. No tests, can't prove there were cases.

The colossal failure -- failure to move quickly to implement widespread testing, tracing, and quarantining as soon as a test was available Jan 13 -- is being twisted into some sort of "positive" by this psychopath (no testing, no cases, cool!).

There is evidence the virus was circulating, undetected, in mid-January (and probably earlier),

There is a reason the Feds ordered the state of Washington to stop testing samples that had been collected for an ongoing flu study for coronavirus. They know we would find cases in January that would prove the virus was already spreading -- that cases were "building up."

As it is, WA only found one early case because they DID test those samples before the Feds put a stop to it.
