Pretty easy to predict. I hope it won't affect those sainted "undecided" voters. They have been saying that the President has been careless and downplaying the risks of COVID - and now he and others in his circle have it.
Well, dummies, a President has many aspects to consider - unlike you who sit on your butts and criticize. Be really great for the President to push the panic button and crash the economy too. He has to act calm and confident, you human debris.
A typical tactic of left-wing spin is to use terms that imply false facts. Specifically, "his well-documented history of downplaying the virus" implies a total cavalier attitude, which could not be further from the truth. His immediate travel ban, despite him being called racist and xenophobe, is a good example.
What he was specifically referring to was obvious situations where wearing a mask was totally unnecessary, and possibly done for image and nothing else. One example was Biden wearing a mask separated from many by several feet in a cornfield.
These kinds of implications are found all over the media. Another example is using terms to falsely suggest a fact. For example, "Do you believe 'the science of climate change'?" (A question Wallace asked the President in the debate) There is no "the science". "The science" suggests a proven fact held by the great majority of scientists. The fact really is, there are some scientists who believe climate change results from man-made actions, to varying degrees, including some scientists who believe any impacts are unproven and/or minimal.
I like that, "Implying false facts!" It is much more appropriate than the term "spin."
"When seconds count, the cops are just minutes away." "Gun control is one shot, one kill!" Have you hugged your AR today?
