President Trump today twice contradicted his own CDC director — on mask-wearing and vaccine distribution — saying Robert Redfield misspoke when he was testifying under oath before a congressional committee earlier in the day

President Donald Trump on Wednesday twice contradicted his own CDC director — on mask-wearing and vaccine distribution — saying the country’s top public health official misspoke when he was testifying under oath before a congressional committee earlier in the day.than a coronavirus vaccine at keeping the pandemic at bay. "If I don’t get an immune response [from a Covid-19] vaccine it’s not going to protect me. This face mask will,” he said.

“It’s just incorrect information,” Trump said. "When he said it, I believe he was confused. ... It's going to be a much faster distribution process." Redfield just hours earlier told the Senate Appropriations Committee it will take about six to nine months to get the American public vaccinated from the date a vaccine is approved.

THE ART OF LYING by donald j trump 45

Is a misspoke like a lie? Thought you weren't allowed to misspoke under oath. But anything possible in the Trump bullshit world

Trump thanks America politics, is like a boardroom, this not democracy, The office of President is not a reality TV show. Trump has likened his term in office to the film The Running Man.

.. OK..! HIGH PRIORITY IS, “SAFETY!!”

Trump is not the expert! He doesn’t care if people die. He’s listening to an un-credible radiologist now on his team. He came from Fox News 🤪. He’s committing murder!

Are you willing to speak under oath about anything, Donald?

Team Pedophile is heinous.

The CDC has given a lot of contradictory statements. I'm going with the President on this one.

Who knows what to believe and why would we take something that hasn't been properly researched.

Under oath

Must be great to know more about any and all subjects than anyone else. Especially those who have spent their lives on highly technical areas but are out done by a reality show conman.

I believe the CDC DIRECTOR...

Unlike those tens of us who injected themselves with chlorine bleach and now find themselves Covid-19-free, we've ALL, i.e. thousands and thousands, heard REAL scientists recommend wearing masks BILLIONS of times since March, 2020.

Redfield should resign in protest but it’s much too late to ever expect politics to not control our health and safety under Trump.Trumps supporters and his entire campaign are no longer involved in efforts to save lives they are focused on destroying Biden’s record.Covid is over!

He’s a super doctor super infectious disease specialist a scientist. Yet he can’t say herd immunity. lol this is h y our president

How fucked are we?

Germany 1938

So Donny Corruption continues to lie to the American people about the TrumpVirus and the reality of what the future holds even under a competent administration, much less this shitshow of incompetence. TrumpClearandPresentDanger

Time to turn up the🐂💩! Must be hell having to work for a president who knows nothing about anything and who thinks he knows everything , but knows nothing.
