BJ Clinton says Trump’s quote about COVID-19 deaths, “It is what it is...”. Perhaps “is” means all the senior citizen deaths promulgated from Cuomo’s refusal to send senior patients to USNS Comfort, and the Javitz Center, but instead sent them back to congregate living with their personalized body bags. Maybe that’s what Trump meant.
I think your interpretation is correct.
Of course, we all know that Clinton is an expert on the meaning of “is”.
When the left makes a big stink about that innocuous Trump quote, I wonder why our side doesn't bring up Pelosi's really horrific comment about mobs destroying statues, "People will do what they do."
Pelosi's quote is way more damaging.
