I remember Trump contradicting Fauci. I remember Trump bringing in Atlas. I remember Trump refusing to wear a mask. I remember Trump talking about HCQ. I remember Trump wearing a mask only one time.
And I remember this...

On Wednesday’s broadcast of the Fox News Channel’s “Ingraham Angle,” Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY), who has endorsed Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) in his 2024 presidential bid, argued that DeSantis will be able to tout his record on the economy “because he didn’t shut his down and Trump was urging governors to shut their economies down.” And that “Trump should have fired Fauci.”
Massie said, “Ron will be able to talk about the economy because he didn’t shut his down and Trump was urging governors to shut their economies down.”
He added, “We all know Trump should have fired Fauci. But look at what Ron DeSantis did in Florida. He fired his surgeon general and got one who followed common sense. He got Joseph Ladapo, who followed the science, and not ‘the science,’ but the data. So we can expect that Ron DeSantis would do the same thing in the White House.

Didn’t Trump start telling governors to open up and stop lockdowns after a a month?
Massie needs to calm down a little.
.
Massive wasn’t supporting Trump when he was President.
He just runs his mouth
He did that was when the bad blood between him and Brian Kemp began and now we have 2 Democratic senators from Georgia.
When you take advice from Fauci and Birx what do you expect
Didn’t Rob DeSanctus shut down FL beaches?
There were mixed messages coming out:
23 April 2020
“Trump says he disagrees with Georgia governor’s move to end lockdown”
President’s intervention comes despite him urging states to reopen as soon as possible and encouraging protesters against lockdown measures
“Would I do that? No, I’d wait a little longer.”Speaking at his daily White House briefing, the president said: “I think it’s too soon. But at the same time, he must do what he thinks is right.”
He added: “Would I do that? No, I’d wait a little longer.”
Not just the beaches. He shutdown almost everything down. He made it mandatory.
.
They be fair, I think the order said only Chris Christie is allowed on the Beach.
So if Trump was a governor in 2020, I think it's reasonable to say that he would have had a mandatory shutdown, "a little longer" than Kemp. Probably as long as DeSantis.
Yes, Trump probably would have continued to trust Fauci and Birx, no matter what office he held.
Probably a good way to keep people off the beach. Wouldn't even need to male it mandatory. People wouldn't just go.
DeSantis shut down individual county beaches (at the request of the counties themselves) for periods of time due to hotspots, but there was no state-wide beach closure.
It wasn’t just those two, we are all old enough to remember what happened and I don’t recall anyone with any rank in his administration standing up and saying the shutdown was wrong. Everyone was shared skitless...
On Wednesday’s broadcast of the Fox News Channel’s “Ingraham Angle,” Rep. Thomas Massie
Want to know which members of the Republican wing of the uniparty have sold their country out to the globalists?
Just watch Fox News which I can’t because I cut the cable in 2016.
Didn’t see the interview but I’m sure Massie and the show host PRETENDED that J6er’s rotting away in the gulags don’t exist.
After Rupert whacked Tucker, discussing J6ers became verboten.
I was in SE Florida during peak COVID ..and everyone was wearing mask in the stores?
That was the time a guy freaked out cause he thought i was to close to him a a path behind a Walmart.
I remember Trump contradicting Fauci. I remember Trump bringing in Atlas. I remember Trump refusing to wear a mask. I remember Trump talking about HCQ. I remember Trump wearing a mask only one time.
And I remember this...
Nope. BTW what would a New Yorker know about Florida?
It’s a lot easier to be a 20/20 policy advisor than when things were running hot.
Besides, Trump had to listen to the ‘experts’ at the time, and no doubt, if DeSantis had been president, he would’ve had to do the same.
No, but Donald Tantrum gave Big Pharma all the money and immunity from prosecution to inject Americans with experimental drugs.
