Wow!!-----The 70 Seconds that Shook the World

The 70 Seconds that Shook the World

"In March 16, 2020, following a long weekend of negotiations and deals about the coronavirus, Donald Trump, Deborah Birx, and Anthony Fauci spoke at a White House press conference for the first time about nationwide lockdowns.
They handed out a sheet of paper – it mostly consisted of conventional health advice – that said in tiny print: “bars, restaurants, food courts, gyms, and other indoor and outdoor venues where groups of people congregate should be closed.”

  • The reading of the text was left to the question and answer session.
Even when it was read by Fauci from the podium, Trump seemed distracted by something else, almost as if he did not hear or did not want to hear it...
  • Let’s take this apart frame by frame to understand what happened in these 70 seconds as part of the Q&A session.
Fauci steps up to the microphone.
  • He does not personally call for lockdowns. 
  • Instead he reads the guidance word for word.
Dr. Fauci: The small print here. It’s really small print. “In states with evidence of community transmission, bars, restaurants, food courts, gyms and other indoor and outdoor venues where groups of people congregate should be closed.”...
