Donald Trump knows how to drive liberals mad.
The left takes the bait every time.
And Donald Trump said five words that sent Democrats into this major freakout.
As Great American Daily reports:
The latest disclosure in the “Twitter Files” exposed the fact that U.S. agencies were controlling the discourse of Ukraine “propaganda,” Covid vaccines, and much more.
In fact, former general counselor of the FBI (and former Twitter deputy general counsel) James Baker offered to silence then-President Donald Trump for failing to affirm the official Covid fearmongering.
“In a surreal exchange, Jim Baker, at the time Twitter’s Deputy General Counsel, asks why telling people to not be afraid wasn’t a violation of Twitter’s Covid-19 misinformation policy,” Zweig tweeted, sharing a screenshot of the email Baker sent to Yoel Roth and Stacia Cardille.
“Why isn’t this POTUS tweet a violation of our COVID-19 policy (especially the ‘Don’t be afraid of COVID’ statement?” Baker asked.
The tweet Baker was trying to censor was one Trump wrote on October 5, 2020, after receiving treatment for Covid from Walter Reed Army Medical Center.
“I will be leaving the great Walter Reed Medical Center today at 6:30 p.m.,” Trump tweeted. “Feeling really good! Don’t be afraid of COVID. Don’t let it dominate your life. We have developed, under the Trump administration, some really great drugs & knowledge. I feel better than I did 20 years ago!”
However, others at Twitter were skeptical that Trump’s statement broke Twitter’s guidelines.
“This tweet is a broad, optimistic statement,” Roth wrote. “It doesn’t incite people to do something harmful, nor does it recommend against taking precautions or following mask directives (or other guidelines).”
Roth however added that Baker was to present a different take, on how Trump’s words didn’t “fall within the published scope” of Twitter’s policies on Covid and that he was “curious” as to whether Baker had “a different read on it.”
The fact that officials were encouraging fear had a massive effect.
According to data from the CDC before Covid 8.6% of U.S. adults reported symptoms of anxiety, while afterward it skyrocketed to 37.2% of U.S. adults reporting symptoms of anxiety, and those numbers haven’t come down that much even with the end of Covid, still 31.1% of Americans report having anxiety.
Anxiety can drastically affect health, and long-term anxiety increases the risk of developing a number of chronic physical conditions.
Because Democrats weren’t actually listening to the science or trying to help protect Americans’ health, in reality, what they really wanted was to control Americans and control even what the president of America was saying in order to suit their political ends.
