If the CDC knew about it "before anyone else" why did they not do anything about it? He can't get out of his own way with his stupid lies. The problem is that there is never a consequence because no one confronts him on it.

This happens because Trump can't think more than five seconds into the future. He just wanted to see approving faces in that one instant; he couldn't even think one hour ahead to the next news cycle that would expose his stupid lie. It's incredible. Psychiatrists will study his case for a century.

is an obvious ADMISSION that both claims are BS...that he KNOWS they are BS...and that it doesn't matter because in his head and in some sense with his base it is a bigger victory to proclaim a lie as true and remain standing.

His life story right there. No consequences, no accountability.
