Biden Campaign Shares 'Most Insane Thing' Trump Has Ever Said With Bonkers 2020 Clip

The Biden-Harris HQ X account resurfaced a 2020 clip of Donald Trump coldly dismissing Covid deaths in response to 'What is the most insane thing anyone has said?' post.

The campaign team for Democratic President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris ramped up their mobilization efforts by sharing a mind-blowing statement from former Republican President Donald Trump downplaying the seriousness of COVID-19-related deaths at the height of the pandemic.

On March 17, an X (formerly Twitter) user, NBAVante, asked social media users:


"What is the most insane thing someone has said during a interview?"

Users shared clips from a wide range of interviews that included sports, entertainment, and politics.

To that the Biden-Harris HQ account added a short clip from the summer of 2020 showing Trump being dismissive of the statistic that 1,000 Americans were dying every day prior to the availability of coronavirus vaccines.

The brief video was from Axios national political correspondent Jonathan Swan interviewing Trump, who claimed that the U.S. death toll from COVID-19 was "lower than the world".

"I think it's under control," Trump proclaimed.

Swan replied:

"How? A thousand Americans are dying a day."

Trump responded with:

"They are dying, that’s true, and it is what it is."

The Biden-Harris team is starting to hammer Trump on his handling of the pandemic since we are now officially 4 years out from the crisis's onset.

The campaign also amplified the moment when NBC News White House correspondent Peter Alexander asked Trump at a coronavirus taskforce briefing four years this week:

“What do you say to Americans, who are watching you right now, who are scared?”

Trump ignored the question and disparaged the journalist by lashing out:

“I say that you’re a terrible reporter. That’s what I say."
"I think it’s a very nasty question and I think it’s a very bad signal that you’re putting out to the American people.”

In another clip from the same press conference, Alexander had asked Trump:

“Is it possible that your impulse to put a positive spin on things may be giving Americans a false sense of hope?”

Trump, who downplayed Dr Anthony Fauci's medical concerns on alternative methods of combating the virus prior to the availability of vaccines, suggested that the use of unapproved hydroxychloroquine could be effective without any evidence.

Trump said of the Immunosuppressive drug and Anti-parasite:

“It may work, it may not work."
"I feel good about it. That’s all it is, it’s a feeling. I'm a smart guy. I feel good about it.”

People online remembered like it was yesterday just how unfit Trump was, and remains, as a leader.





Little did we know then this was just the tip of the iceberg of the "bloodbath" to come.

Trump's Commencement Speech Claim That The U.S. Is 'Hot' Right Now Turns Into Hilariously Brutal Self-Own

President Donald Trump's attempt to smear the Biden administration turned into a self-own while he spoke at the commencement ceremony for the U.S. Coast Guard Academy this week.

Trump spoke as several hundred protesters gathered outside Coast Guard Academy campus in New London, Connecticut. During the nearly hour-long address to cadets and their families, he alternated between praising the graduating class of 2026 and revisiting familiar themes about what he described as the country’s recovery after a period of decline.

ChatGPT Response Appears To Make It Into School Textbook—And We're Doomed

Students are being actively discouraged from using ChatGPT and other AI-generation tools, as they are expected to learn their educational concepts and be able to put them into practice. They are also not supposed to use these tools while writing papers or during at-home tests.

Given how expensive grade school and college textbooks are, it is reasonable that educational writers and content professionals should be held to the same standards. Wouldn't it make sense for them to use the knowledge of their field, rather than what's been fed into ChatGPT, to make a textbook a worthwhile purchase for students?
