Sorry, I’m not up to speed on “leaning forward”. Please explain.
CDC persons (Director?) today were saying they were “leaning forward” blah blah. I was being sarcastic because I think it’s been handled cavalierly.
“Leaning forward” as in “leaning forward in the saddle” means to think and look ahead and take some preemptive measures to counter a potentially serious situation rather than just reacting as the situation unfolds.
A rider leans forward so as to not fall off the horse when it has to jump over an unforeseen obstacle or dangerous thing along the trail.
