A quote from Herr Leader today, talking about the virus.
Why would he make such a statement?
As usual, it is the "safest" comment for him to make, in order to protect himself politically in the future.
If it does get a lot worse, he can say, "I told you so".
If the numbers begin to go down and it does not return in the fall, he can say it was due to the "great job that he and his team have done". He is always covering his own big butt.
Months ago, he said it was going to "disappear".
Now, he is saying it will disappear, "eventually".
Now, six months later, he is saying everyone should wear masks. That wasn't always his position.

(82,849 posts)Didn't the virus disappear like magic four months ago? Trump said it would, which justified his incompetent reaction to the pandemic and the thousands and thousands dead.
