Fuk that. I’ve said from day one. When the mortality rate is shown to have a decimal in front of it ...... it’s time to start living again. Let the meek and the weak deal with life as it comes.

Here is the actual transcript. He never called the Covid-19 a Hoax, read the text at 5.44 where he says The Democrats are politicizing the COVID-19. He immediately goes to the media criticizing him. THen at the 7:07, he links the Russia, the Impeachment, that they tried to get him on then he links the COVID-19 and how the Dems and their media allies are now moving to this crisis to take down his poll ratings. He then goes on to his point that at that time USA had 15 cases and implicitly referred back to his shutting down travel from China, which he did on 31 January if I remember correctly. Had China been truthful with the WTO, who as recently as around 15 January were saying no evidence of human to human infection, that shut down could have happened at that time before hundreds of thousands of Chinese citizens returned to where they were working after celebrating the Chinese new year which did not begin until 25 January.

Donald Trump: (05:44)
We are stronger, we are better, but while we are building a great future, the radical left Democrats in Washington are trying to burn it all down. They have spent the last three years, and I can even go further than that, three years since the election, but we go before the election, working to erase your ballots and overthrow our democracy. But with your help, we have exposed the far left’s corruption and defeated their sinister schemes and let’s see what happens in the coming months. Let’s watch. Let’s just watch. Very dishonest people. Now the Democrats are politicizing the coronavirus, you know that right? Coronavirus, they’re politicizing it. We did one of the great jobs. You say, “How’s President Trump doing?” They go, “Oh, not good, not good.” They have no clue. They don’t have any clue. They can’t even count their votes in Iowa. They can’t even count. No, they can’t. They can’t count their votes.

Donald Trump: (07:07)
One of my people came up to me and said, “Mr. President, they tried to beat you on Russia, Russia, Russia.” That didn’t work out too well. They couldn’t do it. They tried the impeachment hoax. That was on a perfect conversation. They tried anything. They tried it over and over. They’d been doing it since you got in. It’s all turning. They lost. It’s all turning. Think of it. Think of it. And this is their new hoax. But we did something that’s been pretty amazing. We have 15 people in this massive country and because of the fact that we went early. We went early, we could have had a lot more than that. We’re doing great. Our country is doing so great. We are so unified. We are so unified. The Republican party has never ever been unified like it is now. There has never been a movement in the history of our country like we have now. Never been a movement. So a statistic that we want to talk about, go ahead. Say USA. It’s okay. USA. So a number that nobody heard of, that I heard of recently and I was shocked to hear it, 35,000 people on average die each year from the flu. Did anyone know that? 35,000, that’s a lot of people. It could go to 100,000, it could be 27,000. They say usually a minimum of 27, goes up to 100,000 people a year die. And so far we have lost nobody to coronavirus in the United States. Nobody. And it doesn’t mean we won’t and we are totally prepared. It doesn’t mean we won’t, but think of it. You hear 35 and 40,000 people and we’ve lost nobody and you wonder the press is in hysteria mode. CNN fake news and the camera just went off, the camera. The camera just went off. Turn it back on. Hey, by the way, hold it. Look at this, and honestly, all events are like this. It’s about us. It’s all about us. I wish they’d take the camera, show the arena please. They never do. They never do. They never do it. They never show the arena. You can hear it because when you hear it, that’s not 200 people. That’s not a hundred people. That’s thousands and thousands of people including people outside. You can hear it. They always show my face. See that face? They show my face. I want them to show the arena, not my face, right? How many have you been to? How many rallies have you gone?

It is less than 50-50 that we will have SEC football played before empty stadia this Fall.

It is less than 1 in 10 chances we'll have even partially full stadia for any games at all. And those chances drop every day that passes.

Look the WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE Club shows up...awesome.
Please post the link to the article where "the experts" said .20 mortality.
Post it. Scopes is a joke. Fact check is neither science or medicine. And this is your reference?? Good Lord that's pathetic.

And don't chicken out & tell me it's out there. You claim it, you prove it.
You seem perturbed a million people haven't died yet.
Post your proof. Better yet shut the Fuc up.

Now the Democrats are politicizing the coronavirus,” Trump said. “They have no clue, they can't even count their votes in Iowa.”

“This is their new hoax,” Trump continued, adding that attacking the White House’s response to the coronavirus had become the Democratic Party’s “single talking point.”

Donald Trump, Feb 28, 2020 in North Charleston, SC.

IMO, it is irresponsible to use the word HOAX in a sentence with coronavirus or Covid-19. Whatever DJT actually meant, it was absurd to use than word as he did.

Might be bad choice of word, but he never said the COVID19 was a hoax. He clearly said the DEMS attacks on Him and the response was the hoax. If you read the transcript from the South Carolina Speech where this "Hoax" thing started with certain DEMS and their media allies at MSNBC, CNN, NYTIME, WAPO, etc, you clearly see what was said.

The context of the word "hoax" was only used to link the DEMS and Media attacks on Trumps handling of the COVID-19 (his response, etc, etc) and their same "Russia Collusion" narrative we heard for 3 years leading up to the Impeachment, which btw was going on throughout January and was not finally over with till early February. Is that not correct?

I too will be surprised if large gatherings are allowed as early as the fall.

If football happens in the fall, Herbstreit should be fired for being a fear mongering POS

I doubt that happens. People are upset with Herbie, I heard Cole Cubic say it is 60-70% that the season will be impacted somewhat. That is as of today. What he said is that the earliest that he is hearing that players will be allowed back on Campus is 15 July and he does not think do to player safety, teams will be able to get ready to play by late August/early September.

I love Herbstreit personally but this seems like a substantial stretch.

The only thing I can think of is maybe he thinks Summer football activities will be canceled as well which would eliminate the VERY MUCH NEEDED preparation for the season.

In reality, none of us knows what we'll be doing in May much less September.
