Did they drug the President before sending him out to speak?
Happy US closer to leaving Afghanistan (Trump seems super-wishy-washy on US leaving), but did not turn on TV midday on Saturday to hear President congratulate himself. Hoping for serious update on coronavirus outbreak.
So far entire press conference is President Trump congratulating himself on his great work.
President Trump demanding "we have taken the most aggressive action in modern history" to fight coronavirus, which is, of course, an obvious lie. By starting off press conference blatantly lying to US makes it impossible for US to believe anything they say.
Risk of transmission is still super-low, and risk of death is still low. But, until the Trump Regime stops lying to US, everything they say just ads to misinformation and confusion.
There are nuggets of truth in what President Trump and his sycophants are saying, but draping all of their comments in fawning praise of President, and blatant lies, spreads misinformation and is not reassuring.
Clearly Trump Regime is no longer claiming coronavirus is a "hoax".
