He says that he doesn&#8217;t want to <em>&#8220;go back,&#8221;<\/em> but the new guidance regarding masks is based on forward looking data that the pandemic is surging due to the new Delta variant, which is infecting a much younger population, including children. In fact, it is Trump who is going backwards to the days when he dismissed the coronavirus as a hoax or the flu, which <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=46642\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">he knew at the time was a lie<\/a><\/strong>. That position led to unimaginable grief and hardship.<\/p>\n<p>What&#8217;s more, Trump&#8217;s assertion that <em>&#8220;Joe Biden and his Administration learned nothing from the last year,&#8221;<\/em> is about as far removed from reality as it can get. Biden is responsibly following the experts at the CDC. By continuing to dismiss the science, it is Trump who has learned nothing. But then, when has he ever learned anything?<\/p>\n<p>Trump refers to <em>&#8220;Brave Americans&#8221;<\/em> who have <em>&#8220;learned how to safely and responsibly live and fight back.&#8221;<\/em> He must not be referring to the hundreds of thousands who are dead. Perhaps he means the approximately 100 million who have yet to get vaccinated, and who are <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=50197\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">mostly Trump supporters and Fox News viewers<\/a><\/strong>? They are the primary reason that the Delta variant is spreading so rapidly and necessitating the new masking guidance.<\/p>\n<p>It is Trump who is going back. It is Trump who who is surrendering to COVID. It is Trump who not only distrusts, but demeans science. And it is Trump who is spreading the ignorance that will let the horrors of the past year happen all over again.<\/p>\n<p>It doesn&#8217;t have to be this way. Last week <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=50111\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Fox&#8217;s Peter Doocy asked press secretary Jen Psaki<\/a><\/strong> if Biden should ask Trump to join him in promoting the vaccine. Psaki replied that Trump didn&#8217;t need an <em>\u201cembroidered invitation.\u201d<\/em> He could have done his own PSA at any time in the past six months but chose not to.<\/p>\n<p>Which makes it all the more grotesquely irresponsible that, even in this new statement by Trump, he still doesn&#8217;t bother to encourage anyone to get vaccinated. But that&#8217;s only because he simply doesn&#8217;t give a damn about anyone but himself.<\/p>\n<p style=\"color:blue;\"><strong>NOTE:<\/strong> Twitter suspended the News Corpse account after 11 years without giving a reason.
