Trump, like lots of people, trusted the experts like Fauci, Birx, the CDC and WHO, and big pharma. As we’ve seen none of them should have been trusted.

But you already knew that and just keep trolling along.

Actually, I didn’t and I’m not.

You don’t just “trust” the experts on something like that. You dig in. You get multiple opinions. You understand all the risks. And then you move forward.

Unless you think he just carelessly said “hey, why don’t you guys just figure it out” on the biggest pandemic in history with global implications. I’m sure you think that is how big decisions like that are made.

Well, they are not.

I chose to believe Trump was a great leader on this. The best leader. He got something done no one else would have done. He also understood the risks, and they were big. And he made the right choice. His style was perfectly suited to execute this and he did. And he had said as much repeatedly.

I refuse to believe he was so ****ing stupid that he just let it roll on the biggest decision in modern history. But you keep believing we had a simpleton in office who had no ability to make a decision like this, who was so duped by literally hundreds of experts working in collusion, and who to this day still believes all the lies that you clearly see, but he doesn’t. You go on with that story.

Good Lord, you're making Yadkaren's "paper envy" retort sound intelligent.

He hasn’t dropped the boomer lime yet.

The answer is "gaslighting"

What's another word that Baghdad Badger can't use correctly?
