President Trump said Tuesday that he did not learn of two memos written in January and February by his own economic adviser warning that a COVID-19 pandemic could kill as many as 2 million Americans until “maybe a day ago.”
“I heard he wrote some memos talking about pandemic,” Trump said during a White House coronavirus task force briefing, “I didn’t see them. I didn’t look for them, either.”
On Jan. 29, Peter Navarro warned his colleagues at the White House that if the administration did not mount an aggressive containment strategy for the coronavirus, it could kill more than half a million Americans and cost the country nearly $6 trillion.
Nearly a month later, on Feb. 23, Navarro distributed an even more dire second memo in which he said as many as 100 million Americans could be infected with COVID-19, which might kill upwards of 2 million U.S. citizens.

Navarro’s memo was not addressed to Trump. He dismissed this last night.
But none of that is happening.
I saw the interview with Navarro on McCallum. He said that the memo was never given to Trump and went on to sing Trump’s praises. McCallum looked constipated.
Because that’s what the models predicted
Also George N. Piffermeister from the President’s car pool maintenance garage predicted that 2 million pandemic deaths would occur. This was writtenm on every repair log that is kept in each vehicle of the presidential car pool.
Piffermeister’s middle initial stands for the name Nostrademus, a direct ancestor.He has been invited to be a guest on the Rachel Maddow show.
Sounds like a Trump took extremely effective actions if we were going to have 2 million Wuhan Flu deaths. We aren’t going to come close to that.
The media and Left are just chasing their tails looking for a gotcha on Trump.
In February Trump wanted to stop airplanes from coming in from China while Democrats were calling him a racist and encouaging people get out and party. Funny I don’t see that in the article.
They are chasing their tails. The new journalism is a bunch of dogmatic lazy jackals who apparently scour the Internet and social media sites and read hate filled comments and tweets by morons and run with it as “news”.
"The new journalism is a bunch of dogmatic lazy jackals who apparently scour the Internet and social media sites and read hate filled comments and tweets by morons and run with it as 'news'." And they make Igor from MASH look like Wolfgang Puck by comparison with slop (such as this story and narrative) that they serve up.
I’d feel infinitely better if Navarro were driving the bus and not Fauci.
They’ve begun showing the audience at Trump pressers. The typical journ-o-list is a 27-year old effete slackjawed moron.
That's the look of someone who philosophically aligns with CNN but the Fox gig came up first.
But the general public does not know that!
More stupid? or stupider? Both you say....
If the liberal media are such smart asses, why haven’t they explained why all the other world leaders didn’t raise the alarm, when they should have, about the coming pandemic?
So? He was obviously dead wrong.
wow what’s happening to Yahoo comment section used to be right leaning now it’s full on millennial shit head left wingers. same people who tweet lies and nonsense.
they have no way to blame POTUS. This wasn’t OUR virus, and we can only rely on what is being reported out of China and WHO.
