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.

It does hit a little bit harder looking back at some of the things that were said around the same time as these interviews. Saying that the virus will disappear, that it is the Democrats new hoax (apparently he was referring to the criticism of how he was handling it when he said hoax but it certainly wasn’t worded that way) and refusing to wear a mask in public for several months.
