I think the point is that the stated reason for opposition is all rational and proper but the suspicion (based on current year political sentiments) is that it is nevertheless a cover for an altogether irrational hope that the the drug is proven ineffective.
- perl4ever 7y agoA problem in my view, with attributing a strategy to the opposition, is that without hindsight, when Trump makes a weird/nonsensical/hyperbolic statement like this, you can't know if it's going to vanish without a trace or be doubled down on and become a huge thing.
