‘You’re starting to harangue me’

Fox News host Chris Wallace grilled Trump campaign adviser Steve Cortes on Sunday about the refusal to wear masks by some people close to President Donald Trump.

During an interview on Fox News Sunday, Wallace noted that seven people who attended the White House event with Supreme Court nominee Amy Coney Barrett were not wearing masks and have now tested positive for COVID-19.

“People packed together, the vast majority not wearing masks,” Wallace said. “How does that make sense?”

For his part, Cortes insisted that the White House took “tremendous precautions” to protect the president, including testing people in close contact with him.

What a load. These sycophants are unbelievable. They don't know how ridiculous they sound. Or maybe they do & know the cult will eat it up. Too bad for them it's comprised of only about 28% of eligible voters. The rest of us know it's straight-up gaslighting.

1. What a joke. Tremendous precautions, my ass.

They can't erase the fact that Trump got it by his own arrogance and ignorance and is now gravely ill in hospital.

2. I believe they were trying to infect Biden

They knew Trump was positive. Here’s how their brains work. They justified giving Biden COVID for fairness. Trump thinks it’s unfair that if he gets COVID that Joe not get it too.

3. No they are narcissists that believe because they are rich and powerful they can't get it

[obamanut2012]

4. Yup, 100% this

[Mike 03]

9. I agree. Trump's attitude was more likely, "I don't feel that bad, I can 'tough' my

way through this and get to that crucial fundraiser in NJ..."

He would never show weakness in a key moment like that, and he definitely wanted to attend that fundraiser.

5. Chris probably finally got himself fired. Lets hope some fox viewers were paying attention

[Me.]

6. They Are Trying To Carry On As If It's Business As Usual

before the Menace landed in the hospital after infecting any manner of people (cause it's not over yet). THe mood in the country has really turned, even the people in the WH are angry he has endangered them.

[Mike 03]

10. Exactly. "Business as usual" and it's so hard to comprehend that they

think this will work. They never realize that the "double down" strategy has its limits.

[Me.]

11. Not To Mention

That all indications are that Biden may very well have that landslide

[beachbumbob]

7. lying about reality doesn't end well and why trump sits at 39%

[MaryMagdaline]

8. It's finally personal with the media

Trumpsters knowingly endangered Wallace and everyone at that debate in Cleveland.

[crickets]

18. +1

12. Is it just me, or is that shot at 2:22 in the video really a group of wax dummies?

[thinkingagain]

13. I'd say they failed

“For his part, Cortes insisted that the White House took “tremendous precautions” to protect the president, including testing people in close contact with him.”

Super spreaders there should be a song
If they all need the coat
“I don’t care”

[Silent3]

14. While Chris did a reasonably good job of pointing out Cortes' BS...

...I wish he'd jump in closer to the start, when all Cortes was talking about was how Trump was protected, not how everyone else wasn't protected from everyone else.

[muriel_volestrangler]

17. Just what I thought. It was a packed audience, and there was no need for it

apart from campaigning - they wanted a picture of "lots of people are excited by our far right judge", and "the virus is under control". The only possible concession to the virus was that it was outdoors. But they were so close that I'd say it was highly risky. It was another Trump rally, only with a better-known audience.

[world wide wally]

15. The "people" he serves?

I didn't see any "people". Just the upper echelon of "elites"

[Srkdqltr]

16. Obviously he was lying. They did not do what they said. If they had the pres would not be in the

Hospital and the others would not be sick.
