Nope, he downplayed a virus for political purposes.
And it's on tape.
a 6 second clip, out of context...
Communists are such reeking hypocrites.

Their entire election strategy is to insist 200k people aren’t dead with more coming, 10’s of millions aren’t out of work with more coming, and that actually Trump should win a Nobel Prize because rioters are burning down courthouses.
****ing. INSANE.
Everyone who supports Donald Trump intentionally takes him out of context.
Everyone who doesn't support Donald Trump intentionally takes him out of context.
Indeed. You think of any crisis response training, one of the first things they'll tell you is not to panic.
Admit your wrongdoing before accusing others of doing it too.

No we don’t. We just let him speak completely and hang himself.
If only he was shot on Fifth Avenue . . .
It is extremely obvious only Donald Trump supporters do this because Democrats support facts over fiction.
I particuarly like the whole thing of all these ****nuts declaring themseles doctors and pathologists and then determining that they didn't ACTUALLY die from Covid because they had a pre-existing condition. Here they are again hating people with pre-existing conditions.
He didn't die of cancer because he had syphillis!
The tape indicates he downplayed the virus. In order to prevent the country from descending into the frantic hell liberals would have caused, with statements like “It’s in God’s hands.”
From this footage, looks to me like Joe would have downplayed it as well.
While there are counter examples in some small number, what I have come to see is this: folks on the left are only interested in presenting the edited facts that support their argument.
Folks are the right are somewhat more balanced.
They don't really support the use of facts at all.
It’s a trait. They believe all kinds of things that aren’t true, such as tax cuts pay for themselves; increasing the money supply causes hyperinflation; government help causes dependency, etc.So why do people on the right always deny proven facts when I present them? If I say this is proof Donald Trump hates Muslims and Latinos, they either ask me what I am talking about or deny what he said means anything. Yeah, right - what about the time his travel ban was specifically for "Muslim countries" instead of "Middle East" after telling voters all Muslims are terrorists? It can't get more obvious than that, and here are Trump supporters saying he did nothing to prove a religious prejudice.
It's fairly easy to criticize people in retrospect.
What would Biden, if President (God forbid) have done differently?
The key might be in this clip of Joe talking to a crowd of supporters at the end of February, saying "It's not a time to panic."
Doesn't sound like the type of behavior characteristic of someone who would have immediately shut down the country. As Joe likes to fantasize that he would have done.
1. It is a six second clip .... whatever we just saw is out of context
2. It was never a time to "PANIC" about corona virus, so his words (as ill-informed as he was here -- see below) were spot on.
3. At the time, Biden was not POTUS. He did not have NSA nor CDC briefings. He was not in the know
4. At the time, Biden was not POTUS. This was not his responsibility, he was merely a candidate for the nomination. His words meant nothing. Leading the country through the pandemic was not his job.
5. Remember, Trump actually was President, privy to sufficient information to understand the problem AND responsible to the American people for acting appropriately to the threat at hand. He failed to do his job.
Do you actually have a point or are you simply a Trump supporter pathetically flailing trying to detract from or otherwise diminish Trump's epic failure of leadership here? Please up your game.
Unlike Trump, Biden has articulated what he would do about the pandemic. Joe Biden’s Plan to Beat COVID-19 – Joe Biden for President: Official Campaign Website
Trump downplayed a serious virus for political purposes.
End of story.
And it wasn't time to panic, panic is never a good thing, to warn people by saying it is not a time to panic is smart advice, only someone who supports Dishonest Donald would make the advice not to panic into a bad thing. Go figure.

Lying Joe Biden. Are these clips playing on CNN and MSNBC? Why do I doubt it.
hypocrisy noted.
YOu guys are living up to the expected standards.

This is the barely coherent and grammatically inept speech of a man who desperately wants to be able to claim that he "cured coronavirus."
That's it, in a nutshell. When we do get a handle on this crisis, he wants to be able to pull out footage and declare "I called it! I said use this! I said try this! I told them to do this, it was my idea!" He's just doing it with lots of stupid stuff because he doesnt want to miss an opportunity. He's afraid 'the big one' will be mentioned and he wont get credit for it.
It's all about declaring himself the savior of the cv crisis and we'll hear all about it, esp in his campaign. (Which is basically each of his press briefings these days) --- Lursa

I do not see the point here...
If anything, it shows how one can both be upfront about the nature of a threat and deliver the message in a calm way. The idea that Trump supposedly could not do what other leaders of developed countries did (want the public without creating panic) does not fly. Ad it is hilarious that especially Trump resorts to such excuses when he does not have a problem with making claims about the rapist and terrorists illegal immigrants and the caravans that invade the US....
