to open one's mouth and prove it to all"..Donald Trump said something like, "The virus will be gone in a few days" or something like that. Or, a "few will get it & then it will be gone."...All Trump had to do was say, nothing, or say, "We will see what happens" or "We don't know the future, we need to be prepared for anything."
...That is it. Simple & clear. I don't know what will happen. And he didn't. But he had to prove that he was "smart" so Trump predicted the future and said it publically to everyone. All it proves is that "Trump is stupid and a fool."
...Donald Trump will be remembered for that statement, "It will be gone in a few days". Now and forever...

Continually gives him a pass on all these egregious lies he spews. Its mind boggling.

..The key word is..."always". How true.

The empty seats in Tulsa are proof.
His base is shrinking, just like everything else about him.
