Trump on Biden: "He'll listen to the scientists." [View all]

From his campaign rally in Carson City, Nevada (via HufPost):

“If you vote for Biden, he will surrender your jobs to China. He will surrender your future to the virus. He’s going to lock down, he’s going to want us to lock down,” Trump said.

“He’ll listen to the scientists,” Trump continued. “If I listened totally to the scientists, we would right now have a country that would be in a massive depression, instead of, we’re like a rocket ship. Take a look at the numbers.”


Once more, I have to wonder how dumb he thinks his followers are. Listen to scientists? Sure, okay, some of his followers will swallow that without batting an eye, but I refuse to believe some of them aren't turned off when they hear that bullshit. Like, when you go to the doctor, do you do what they tell you to do, or cuss them out for infringing on your constitutional rights by wanting you to take your medicine?

And how would you feel if you knew your doctor's most recent 210,000 patients HAVE DIED?
