At some point the fact it is .1 to .2 % fatal is going to have to be acknowledged. However Trumps constant beating he drum on how his decisive actions saved lives is at odds with that narrative. He may have put Fauci and Birx front and center, but he keeps taking credit for what a great job he did.
Not sure how he backs out of it and points out the entire thing was a hoax with out hurting his bragging about how well his administration has done.
