Ugh ok ok, outside of PLAYING IT DOWN which is a LIE, just to Quote a few things he's ACTUALLY said 

"when we get into April, in the warmer weather—that has a very negative effect on that, and that type of a virus."


"99%” of COVID-19 cases are “totally harmless"


"The U.S. has “among the lowest case-fatality rates of any major country anywhere in the world.”

(Russia, India, South Korea all have better numbers)

Also:

“You just breathe the air and that’s how it’s passed,” Trump said in a Feb. 7 call. “And so that’s a very tricky one. That’s a very delicate one. It’s also more deadly than even your strenuous flu.”

thats in February

In March with Sean Hannity

“Now, with the regular flu, you know, we average from 27,000 to 77,000 deaths a year. Who would think that? I never knew that, until six or eight weeks ago. I asked that question. I said, how many people die of the flu? You know, you keep hearing about flu shot, flu shot, take your flu shot. But I said, how many people die of the flu? And they said, sir, we lose between 27,000 and, you know, somewhere in the 70s. I think we went as high as 100,000 people died in 1990, if you can believe that. But a lot of people, regardless, I think it averages about 36,000 people a year. So I said, wow. And that’s — now, that’s a percentage that’s under 1% very substantially. So, it would be interesting to see what that difference is. But, you know, again, a lot of people don’t report, because they get the coronavirus, and they get better relatively quickly. Not that severe.” — Trump in an interview with Fox News’ Sean Hannity.

I fail to see a lie in any of those quotes.  Playing down the virus is NOT a lie.


There are 10 kinds of people in this world.  Those who understand binary and those who don't.
