Every time President Donald Trump and his political team claim great progress in the pandemic it's a dangerous sign: things are likely about to get worse.
Forever spinning their failure in handling the crisis, Trump and Vice President Mike Pence
on Monday made selective claims of "significant" advances and "very
encouraging" signs and celebrated "plateauing" cases in sunbelt areas
that might have escaped their disasters by ignoring the President's
advice.
Their cheerleading clashed with forecasts from government health experts that 1,000 Americans a day will die from Covid-19 in coming weeks, and an alarming warning from Dr. Deborah Birx, which led Trump to effectively brand the 40-year public health servant in a tweet as "pathetic."
The
President also renewed blatantly false claims that the United States
had done a better job than many other countries that are now seeing
flareups of the disease that pale in comparison with the disaster in the
southern United States.
