CHINA: “Just so you understand, we were having an unbelievable success until the China plague came in… We were beating China like a drum. Everything was good. And then the plague came, and we had to close it down. And now we’re opening it up but we closed it down, Brian, we saved millions of lives. We would have lost two and a half, three million lives. We’re 200,000, a little more, it’s terrible that – but we would have lost millions of lives. You see this – if we would have just kept it open if somebody didn’t make the decision. I did the ban on China, I did the ban on Europe, all of that, but we were – for the first I’ve seen in 30 years, people were calling me that would never have called a Republican president.
We were starting to get there and you know what the answer was, success. We were having such success, the country was coming together.”
