    Churchill was famous for saying that the Nazis were no worse than the flu and would disappear of their own accord.https://twitter.com/daveweigel/status/1304214183291105281 …

    David WeigelVerified account @daveweigel
    As part of an attack on the Woodward book, Trump's now comparing his response to covid-19 to Churchill's leadership during the Blitz. "They wanted me to come out and scream: People are dying. No, I did it just the right way."

        Dave blocked me but it doesn't matter. His vapid useless view is predictable as a Wall Street rally.

        There was a MAGA guy commenting on my dad’s Facebook post today saying “what, do you want someone to yell fire in an office building?” And it’s like, yeah, if there’s a fire I want someone to tell me, not say that it’s no more dangerous than having the heater on.

        If the building is actually on fire I suppose telling someone wouldn’t hurt.

        Sadly, most trumpets will take what you just said at face value. Irony is stone dead.

        Don't forget he told everybody to leave their lights on because the blitz was a hoax.
