Donald Trump Coronavirus Press Conference Transcript July 21
“Well, thank you very much and good afternoon. Today, I want to provide an update on our response to the China virus and what my administration is doing to get the outbreak in the Sun Belt under control, seems largely in Sun Belt, but could be spreading.”
“We are in the process of developing a strategy that’s going to be very, very powerful. We’ve developed as we go along.”
Obama’s administration left a Pandemic Playbook that Trump ignored
Evidence Shows Obama Team Left A Pandemic ‘Game Plan’ For Trump Administration
The White House developed a 30-Day Plan that Trump trashed one Day One!
Fact Check Time:
Fact check: At his first coronavirus briefing since April, Trump repeats a handful of classic false claims
“He continued to boast that the US has done many more tests than other countries, ignoring the fact that many peer nations did so much better controlling the virus that they haven’t needed to keep conducting so many tests.”
Lying again about the pandemic, Trump made 200 false claims from early June to early July
Trump says we’re doing better than ‘most other countries’ on coronavirus. Not even close.
And Trump repeated some of the specific false claims we and others fact checked repeatedly in earlier stages of the crisis: his claim that he inherited “empty cupboards” of supplies and ventilators, that he shut US borders to China and Europe, and that governors do not need anything from the federal government.
The Obama administration left Trump with a “stockpile with a cupboard that was bare.”
“that he shut US borders to China and Europe,”
“Veteran’s Choice”
