He's been studying them very strongly for a very strong period of time. A very strong period of time. So he knows a lot, and maybe more, some people say more than a lot of people. Some very smart people say that.

This will be Trump in time: "I was calling it a pandemic when the Democrats were impeaching me. It''s a shame they considered the pandemic a hoax and were more worried about impeaching me." Anything to get the Trumpers to believe and run with.
