Watch Jonathan Swan demolish Trump in this now-viral interview. Watch Trump flail as Swan pushes back on Trump’s jaw-dropping claims.
Take, for instance, Trump’s repeated mantra that the US tests too much:
Trump: “You know, there are those that say you can test too much, you do know that.”
Swan: “Who says that?”
Trump: “Oh, just read the manuals. Read the books.”
Swan: “Manuals? What manuals?”
Trump: “Read the books. Read the books.”
Swan: “What books?”
But most telling of all is when confronted with the horrific daily death toll from Coronavirus Trump shrugs and replies ‘It is what it is.’
Trump: “Right now, I think it’s under control. I’ll tell you what –“
Swan: “How? 1,000 Americans are dying a day.”
Trump: “They are dying. That’s true. And you have — it is what it is. But that doesn’t mean we aren’t doing everything we can. It’s under control as much as you can control it.”
