I have no idea of what "figures" he has fudged, but the guy lies so much, it certainly is not beyond him to lie about anything and everything, RB.
He is a liar...and if we are worried that Xi might be lying about the coronavirus numbers in China...we SHOULD be worried about Trump lying about the coronavirus numbers in the US.
Here is what I wrote: "I am MUCH less bothered by the prospect that China (or any of those other countries) fudged figures in order to make a leader or the country look better...than I am that OUR COUNTRY may end up doing that fudging because of the damage real statistics here might impact on The Dear Leader. Not saying we are doing it...or that Trump is ordering it..but it would not astonish me if it were discovered that something like that IS HAPPENING."
And you called that "bullshit."
Please, tell me it is 9 Ball or Straight...not 8 Ball. (Milk?)
RB, if you honestly cannot see...there is no "explaining" it. His disruption of the Republic, its institutions and its norms, is so blatant that anyone but a blind person can see it.
Whistle blowers in government are absolutely necessary...especially in the kind of government being run by Trump right now. If they have anything that would benefit the country...they would do what the WPA and the WPEA require them to do.
They should not be fired...they should be protected from being fired...which is what those laws do.
You would have no trouble understanding that if the whistleblower were providing information during the administration of Former President Obama...rather than Trump.
