Now that the stock market has stabilized, funding has been passed, and their fake news last week failed the left is trying to come up with something to attack President Trump with and cause chaos in America. The left is using an interview President Trump had this week with Sean Hannity to try and pull the wool over the eyes of the American people…Again!
Here’s one great example…

Earlier this week, President Trump appeared on Sean Hannity’s show and they were discussing the coronavirus during the interview President Trump said this:
I think the 3.4 percent [number] is really a false number. Now, this is just my hunch, but based on and lot of conversations with a lot of people that do this, because a lot of people will have this and it is very mild. They will get better very rapidly, they don’t even see a doctor or call doctor, you never hear about those people so you can’t put them down in the category, in overall population in terms of this corona flu, or virus. So you just can’t do that.
So if, you know, we have thousands or hundreds of thousands of people that get better, just by, you know, sitting around and even going to work, some of them go to work, but they get better and then, when you do have a death like you had in the state of Washington, like you had one in California, I believe you had one in New York, you know, all of a sudden it seems like 3 or 4 percent, which is a very high number, as opposed to a fraction of 1 percent.
But again, they don’t know about the easy cases because the easy cases don’t go to the hospital, they don’t report to doctors or the hospital in many cases so I think that [the WHO] number is very high. I think the number, personally, I would say the number is way under 1 percent.
Now, with the regular flu, we average from 27,000 to 77,000 deaths a year. Who would think that? I never knew that until six or eight weeks ago, I asked that question, I said, ‘How many people die of the flu?’ You know, you keep hearing about ‘flu shot, flu shot, take your flu shot,’ but how many people die of the flu? And they said, ‘sir, we lose between 27,000 and, you know, somewhere in the 70s’ — I think we went as high as 100,000 people died in 1990, if you can believe that, but a lot much people regardless. I think it averages about 36,000 people a year. So I said, ‘Wow, that is a percentage that is under 1 percent, very substantially.’ So it’d be interesting to see what difference is but again, a lot of people don’t report.
Almost immediately left-wing nut job reporters, who apparently became pandemic experts overnight starting pushing fake news.
Trump to Hannity on WHO saying coronavirus death rate is 3.4%: “I think the 3.4% number is really a false number. Now this is just my hunch, but based on a lot of conversations … personally, I’d say the number is way under 1%.”

The WHO number is inflated because it combines deaths in underdeveloped countries like most of China and deaths in the US. Writing in the New England Journal of Medicine Dr. Fauci brought this up:
This suggests that the overall clinical consequences of Covid-19 may ultimately be more akin to those of a severe seasonal influenza (which has a case fatality rate of approximately 0.1%) or a pandemic influenza (similar to those in 1957 and 1968) rather than a disease similar to SARS or MERS, which have had case fatality rates of 9 to 10% and 36%, respectively.
It’s also not true that President Trump said it was ok to go to work. The President said people may have symptoms that are so mild they may go to work and there has not been one documented case of a child under 15 contracting the virus (doesn’t mean they can’t carry it).
Except Trump literally said on live national television with Sean Hannity on Fox News that thousands of people with the coronavirus can get better by “sitting around” or “just going to work, some of them go to work.” Trump blatantly lies even when he’s recorded saying it. pic.twitter.com/S7qULm9V96

Liz Wheller also pointed out the liberal’s latest lie to try and hoax Americans.
It’s like liberals hate President Trump so much they can’t even understand plain English.
