Not defending Frieden, but really, where the eff is the President of the United States? The effing POTUS, where is he?
The POTUS is on the golf course, or at a $30K plate fundraiser or sleepin in til Reggie comes knockin. But he's absolutely at the center of this joke of a response from CDC. Frieden's continued adherence to this tortured, ridiculous excuse for keeping our borders open comes straight from Obama.
IMHO, Frieden doesn't believe any of the nonsense he's parroting. He's simply sold his soul.
