Probably counting the money he spent on the military.
All seriousness aside the Trump people on the internet are just in complete denial.

And while I know his supporters and defenders won't care it's still kind of fun to watch a known liar try and lie his way out of his own words.
RE: Coronavirus Information...who do you trust? - GMDino - 09-09-2020
Time for the bed time/rehabilitation talk with his boy tonight.
Will be interviewed by @SeanHannity tonight at 9:00 P.M. Eastern on @FoxNews. Enjoy!

The difficulty in defending Trump lies in Trump's own penchant for changing his story. Let's see...
NEWS - Trump's inauguration crowd was smaller than Obama's.
TRUMP SUPPORTER - That's because only unemployed losers have the time to go to stuff like that, therefore a large crowd would be bad.
TRUMP - My inauguration had the BIGGEST CROWD ever!!!!!
NEWS - Covid is bad.
TRUMP - Pffft, it's a hoax!
TRUMP SUPPORTERS - An overblown hoax! Screw your cowardly masks!
TRUMP - Some say it's patriotic to wear a mask!
TRUMP SUPPORTERS - You have to admit he looks badass wearing that thing!
TRUMP - It's a hoax again.
NEWS - Biden is leading Trump in the polls.
TRUMP SUPPORTERS - Who cares? Polls are meaningless.
TRUMP - We're up big everywhere!
And so on.

He's going on Hannity tonight. This should be fun. It's easy to attack anonymous sources. Harder to attack audio recordings.
Edit: I see you posted the tweet in the very next post. whoops!

This also goes back to Trump's belief that's he smarter than everyone else. I'm positive he thought that "only he" could outsmart Woodward. But that ego, whew...that ego. Had to brag. Had to talk too much.
Then he lies about what he said.
If he wasn't POTUS it would just be a joke like the rest of his career. Sadly he probably caused thousands of deaths.

I think him giving so many interviews was absolutely a "I am smarter than you" thing. Open up to the guy who took down Nixon to prove he can't take me down.

Or it could be seen as the POTUS knew it was bad but decided to do nothing to help people prepare and then continued to "play it down" (his words) even as the virus spread. Going so far as to mock people who wore masks and blame Democratic officials for mishandling everything. He also knew it affected younger people too and continues to lie about it in public.

All the audio is at the link.
Ok this is getting really really really ridiculous. I may have to bury my head in the sand and join the trumpets. Who cares if the Russian asset downplayed a deadly virus so it would ravage our country while his administration instructed the veteran (sucker and loser) intelligence official to alter intelligence reports on things like Russian interference so dear leader would look smart.
Why are people so out to get the best leader ever? All he is doing is tearing our country down so he can maga. I’m on board the traitor train. I mean trump train.

Oh, so NOW we believe anonymous sources, Tucker? Conservatives, what are your thoughts on anonymous sources?

Trump is still calling for schools to be open. "safely" he says with no plan.
Also he speaks like someone who never paid to maintain a building for use or paid his employees.
Democrats, OPEN THE SCHOOLS ( SAFELY), NOW! When schools are closed, let the money follow the child (FAMILY). Why should schools be paid when they are closed? They shouldn’t!

Oh, the Democrats are in charge of keeping the schools closed? And the guy with the ultimate authority to over rule governors is powerless to do anything, but tweet about it?

Explain how Trump would force the Democrats to open schools since it is the local school officials keeping them closed (and not the Democrats)?

It's also expensive to teach online when you lack the infrastructure
I like how the premise is that schools just aren't operating

No. It seems he just wants him to take responsibility for his own actions instead of blaming the Democrats. Although I am not sure if he actually has the authority to over rule the governors on this school issue.

Here in Georgia, it has nothing to do with Governor Kemp, Democrats, or Republicans. Each district decides for themselves. All the public county schools opened with virtual learning only because this summer's Covid surge forced them to postpone any traditional classes in person. I personally watched the meeting when the school board members voted on the plan based upon information from the local medical community.
The one school that I know opened for traditional classes has been forced to close because of a Covid surge. I'm aware of this because I've had to test students from that school and spoke with their parents who explained what happened. I went to the school's website and they don't have any information about it on their site.
This suggestion Democrats are keeping the schools closed is a total lie completely in keeping with the Liar In Chief's habitual, daily lying.
