The science she quoted was not based on the curve notion. Heck, Sweden never even locked down. She cited a JAMA article as evidence that science was on the side of opening the schools.

And, what I'm pointing out here is not whether it is right or wrong to open the schools, but that it is wrong, deceitful, a sort of lie, fake news, to select one line out of a full statement in order to distort the content into meaning the opposite of what it says.

And that is a recurring trick that anti-trumpers use over and over to make Trump out to be something he isn't.

1. Sweden's prime minister orders an inquiry into the failure of the country's no-lockdown coronavirus strategy
2. McEnany has lied too many times already, but people have taken that statement out of context. Tweety on the other hand, makes so many incoherent, incomplete and disconnected statements that it’s almost impossible to determine what he is saying or if it is anything at all. Read any transcript of his off the cuff speeches. No trick to it.

Sweden flattened the curve. Germany has lifted its travel restriction on Sweden. 90% of coronavirus deaths in Sweden were those over 70 years old, and mostly in elderly care centers.

2. McEnany has lied too many times already,

That's nonsense.

but people have taken that statement out of context.

Perhaps you didn't read what I said. The entire context, the entirety of what McEnany said showed that the statement meant entirely the opposite than what it appeared to mean when selected out of the entire of what she said.

Tweety on the other hand, makes so many incoherent, incomplete and disconnected statements that it’s almost impossible to determine what he is saying or if it is anything at all. Read any transcript of his off the cuff speeches.

That is switching the subject. The subject is what McEnany said.

No trick to it.

It was absolutely a "trick." The quote was selected out of the entire context in order to make it look like she was saying something opposite of what she actually said. It was a dirty trick.

Poor boy
Better look at Tweety and McEnanys Biden “quotes”
And I didn’t switch the subject, I replied to this statement of yours “ And that is a recurring trick that anti-trumpers use over and over to make Trump out to be something he isn't.”

I’m sure blue man might have an interesting and educational opinion of this interesting picture that someone posted on Facebook, as it’s expected Biden will pick a women, likely black and that he is a one term president due to age.

Remember the first time she spoke and she promised not to lie. What a joke. It's funny watching the Trump people make fun of Biden yet trump makes more incoherent statements than anyone and we're constantly told you have to understand what he means not what he says.

Hilarious trying to watch you constantly trying to defend Trump and your constant insults. Almost as hilarious as a non fisherman spending time on a fishing website debating politics.

Your quoting McEnany selectively was a dirty trick unbecoming of the usually moral and better person that you are. I was defending her, not Trump.
