The one Trump says exists. Do you disagree with him?

Every generation feels superior to the generations that follow them. "The children now love luxury; they have bad manners, contempt for authority; they show disrespect for elders and love chatter in place of exercise. Children are now tyrants, not the servants of their households. They no longer rise when elders enter the room. They contradict their parents, chatter before company, gobble up dainties at the table, cross their legs, and tyrannize their teachers."

So, how many people in the world would have to be infected before you would acknowledge it as a pandemic?

When you behave like a cult by accepting everything that he says, true or not, it's hard to think of the group differently.

Point taken. In what I posted, Trump blames Obama for destroying testing which hindered Trump from dealing with coronavirus. This is demonstrably false. I will do more research on the other fact in dispute. A thoughtful response by your team is like finding an oasis in the desert.

The fact that many people want to make it disappear quickly is probably a better explanation for its tapering down.

I don't disagree a bit with what you wrote. Have personal experience with it, but I don't see how this relates to the notion that the story of the pandemic is over.

If someone dies in a pandemic and another person dies of heart failure, does that mean there is no pandemic? Until today, I have never heard someone say there is no pandemic. Is Trump wrong when he says there is a pandemic?

How can the STORY be over while there is still a pandemic and that will rise again in the fall? Are you talking about a different story?

Saying you refuse to read it isn't an answer. When you had an essay question in school, if you wrote that you refused to read that essay because it's crap, would you get full credit for your answer?

A friend of mine died from it, so I guess the sign would be wrong. It's like saying I can't see oxygen, therefore it doesn't exist.

Honest answer.. No. Only saw some clips. If he would agree to an interview with someone other than Fox, I would definitely watch, but he's petrified of being confronted with questions that aren't softballs or push back on his answers.

There you have it. Reality Check knows more about viruses than Fauci. We're blessed to have him here. Reminds me of when Trump said that the scientists were all so impressed about his knowledge on the topic.

This is Trump blaming Obama for coronavirus: "For decades the CDC looked at, and studied, its testing system, but did nothing about it," Trump tweeted early Friday morning. "It would always be inadequate and slow for a large scale pandemic, but a pandemic would never happen, they hoped. President Obama made changes that only complicated things further," Trump tweeted. "Their response to H1N1 Swine Flu was a full scale disaster, with thousands dying, and nothing meaningful done to fix the testing problem, until now. The changes have been made and testing will soon happen on a very large scale basis. All Red Tape has been cut, ready to go!" Trump said. Trump didn't specify what "changes" Obama made. According to experts, there weren't any

Fact or editorial? Quit ducking. When: Multiple timesThe claim: The Trump White House “inherited” a “broken,” “bad,” and “obsolete” test for the coronavirus.The truth: The novel coronavirus did not exist in humans during the Obama administration. Public-health experts agree that, because of that fact, the CDC could not have produced a test, and thus a new test had to be developed this year.

I would hope that some can learn, but...

That might have been what he meant. Even so, I disagree

So, you have more knowledge than him on this topic?

So, you agree with Trump that we won't have another wave?

We have a noted virologist here. Have you told Faucci he's wrong?

Even Trump has moved off that position. Don't stray from his position or they might drum you out of the cult.

You believe the pandemic is over?

Let's give Joe a chance to answer.

Forgive me. I missed the answer. Just to clear up any confusion, which part of the following is untrue about this particular Trump lie? When: Multiple timesThe claim: The Trump White House “inherited” a “broken,” “bad,” and “obsolete” test for the coronavirus.The truth: The novel coronavirus did not exist in humans during the Obama administration. Public-health experts agree that, because of that fact, the CDC could not have produced a test, and thus a new test had to be developed this year. Please repeat your answer. I looked and couldn't find it.

I know I'm impressed with your debating skills.
