Did Mulavaney actually call it a hoax? I know he’s been dismissive.

I’m beginning to think Mulvaney isn’t all that.

the way I read this is he said the Trump Impeachment was the hoax, not the coronavirus...

Doesn’t sound like it. From the excerpt it sounded like Mulvaney said the impeachment was a hoax. Apparently Lieu has his head up his butt.

C’mon. If you believe libs/media/dems, you might as well give up. Mulvaney said that Publications were too consumed with Trump’s impeachment — which Mulvaney called a “hoax” — to focus on the snowballing outbreak when they should have been, the chief of staff said.

“Why didn’t you hear about it?” Mulvaney said to the conservative audience. “The press was covering their hoax of the day because they thought it would bring down the president.”

Reporters are paying more attention to the virus now in an attempt to “take down the president,” according to Mulvaney.

“Is it real? It absolutely is real,” Mulvaney said of the deadly virus. “But you saw the president the other day — the flu is real.

“Are you going to see some schools shut down?” he said. “Probably. May you see impacts on public transportation? Sure. We know how to handle this.”

Mulvaney said the now-struggling US stock market — fraught with coronavirus-fueled panic — could make a turnaround if people ignore the press’ hype for a bit.

“What I might do to calm the markets is turn the television off for 24 hours,” the official said. This was from https://nypost.com/2020/02/28/mick-mulvaney-media-is-using-coronavirus-coverage-to-take-down-trump/

Maybe he was picking that up from Rush and Hannity.

He said it in the context of being used to attack the president. The blame Trump aspect is what is the hoax.
