The one about masks is correct, as well as election wins.

The others are insubstantial points.

Do you have any Actual lies? Anything that cannot be charged off to politics?

If you’re going to count political bs you have to do that with Clinton and Biden and Pelosi and the fucking dossier and the rest. Who are the REAL LIARS?

Mask wearing has been shown to be dangerous. Perhaps why the locations where mask wearing is stringently enforced have more virus than others.

I don't see anyone wearing them anymore, actually.

The pandemic would, of course, just disappear with the passage of time. They always have before. But today we can induce herd immunity, so that's progress. I don't think he was lying. I think he understood at that moment we didn't have anything else to offer. That's how I took it at the time. And in fact, it moves in waves.

I think most people could comprehend the comment.

>> That Trump's 2016 victory was the biggest since Reagan:

Do you think the electorate didn't change in all that time? That has no role?

Trump won by a pretty huge margin if you compare with, e.g., Clinton's supposed win. According to the media, he had an eye-rolling no-chance of winning. Yet, he did. He would have won in 2020 were it not for the election theft. It was "won" by a couple hundred thousand votes, which they spent 500 Million of private money and corrupted the rules of five states to get. Cheated to get 200K votes.

So, yes, Trump's win was pretty big, although it is vast political exaggeration for him to claim it was as big as Reagan's win. But Reagan wasn't a political target like Trump is.
