Incroyable. On est maintenant au delà de la vérité, puisque le savoir devient un objet politique et non un moyen d’aborder le monde. Ce tweet de Trump est un épitomé de la nouvelle situation où la foi et l’orgueil sont les seules motivations de nos dirigeants.
Trump has touted the overall number of tests that have been conducted in the country — now more than 8 million. But at times he’s read a different message in them.
“If we did very little testing, [America] wouldn’t have the most cases,” Trump said Wednesday. “So, in a way, by doing all of this testing, we make ourselves look bad.”
And Trump’s reservations about testing appear to be rooted in politics. Trump said Friday he believes some Democrats hope the economy doesn’t bounce back.
“I will tell you, you look at some cases, some people think they’re doing it for politics,” Trump said on Fox News Channel. “Here we go again. But they think they’re doing it because it’ll hurt me, the longer it takes to — hurt me in the election, the longer it takes to open up.”
