Has Trump Broken Up With The Virus?
April 10, 2020:
This is a very brilliant enemy. You know, it's a brilliant enemy. ... [T]he germ has gotten so brilliant that the antibiotic can't keep up with it [Medical Note: Antibiotics work against bacteria, not viruses.] ... There's a whole genius to it. ... We're fighting – not only is it hidden, but it's very smart. Okay? It's invisible and it's hidden, but it's – it's very smart. ... This is a – this is genius that we're fighting. You know, we're fighting this hidden enemy, which is genius. Okay? It's genius, the way it's attacked so many countries at so many different angles.July 2:
We are ... getting under control. Some areas that were very hard hit are now doing very well. Some were doing very well and we thought they may be gone and they flare up and we're putting out the fires. But other places were long before us, and they're now ... It's a life. It's got a life and we're putting out that life because that's a bad life that we're talking about.

lol. That is like saying “After having laid off 1000 workers due to a factory fire, we have rehired 100 of them....oh yeah, the factory is still on fire”— walter marcantoni (@wmarcant) July 2, 2020
This is like predicting the death toll from a pandemic will be 250,000 and then celebrating when it's only 135,000 so far.— Stephen Preston (@scpresto) July 2, 2020
Oh yeah, he did that too.
Despite record new US case numbers, Trump claims the coronavirus is "getting under control," then goes on a weird rant about how the virus has "got a life, and we're putting out that life, because that's a bad life that we're talking about." pic.twitter.com/gf4VMsxgn3— Aaron Rupar (@atrupar) July 2, 2020

For the first time we can say we're looking out explosive, out-of-control growth in cases across the USA. This is separating out NY from the rest of the country. Look at the arc from early-mid-June. Depending on where you start you're looking at almost a tripling in 2 or 3 weeks. pic.twitter.com/RanAVwAjby— Josh Marshall (@joshtpm) July 2, 2020
3/ What is key is that unlike March and April this isn't concentrated in one epicenter with a few other serious regional outbreaks. This is very widespread across the entire country, with only a few areas where the spread is controled.— Josh Marshall (@joshtpm) July 2, 2020
The graph also shows that when you factor out NY, the COVID cases never came down at all.— Paula Lovinski (@LovinskiPaula) July 2, 2020

REPORTER: There's a record number of new infections every day. Does the WH regret encouraging states to reopen as quickly as it did, & did it backfire?— Aaron Rupar (@atrupar) July 2, 2020
