Trump tried to attack Biden by saying his opponent would 'listen to the scientists' in dealing with COVID-19

President Donald Trump ridiculed Democratic nominee Joe Biden on the campaign trail on Sunday by saying Biden will "listen to the scientists" when it comes to handling the coronavirus.

The words, said in a mock-serious tone at a Nevada rally, came as Trump contrasted his ambivalence towards his scientific advisors with how Biden might approach the pandemic.

Does Donald not understand that when one is a candidate for office, they typically try to convince voters to vote for them and not their opponent?

But then you don't bring along with that other things that has got to be considered. First different medical people are saying different things. And also medical professionals might bring their expertise and OPINIONS to the table. Other professionals in other fields LIKEWISE need to heard and considered as well, as in those who know about economics. The President has to weigh ALL THINGS in making assessments not just turn the keys of the White House over to any one doctor.

That's why we have this little thing called 'scientific consensus'..

Does the name Scott Atlas mean anything to you?

A radiologist who lobbied for the job of pandemic czar by incessantly praising trump on Fox News. Oh, and he has no expertixe on infectious diseases, but he got the keys of the White House turned over to him a couple of months ago.

Trump also said he’d leave the country and never speak to his supporters again if he were to lose to Biden. As if we needed any more reasons to vote him out!

What scientists will Biden listen to? He doesn't wear a mask half the time so to me he obviously must be going to listen to the same ones Trump does.

One of many.

Maybe some scientists have it wrong, but by all means, lets not get into the much more likely than not details here.

It's a complete joke to make such a claim and leave it at that, as small minded people will get from it just what the author intended, and unfortunately small minded people have the right to vote.

Trump knows that some fundamentalists hate or fear scientists because of the evolution/old earth/global warming issues. Trump’s just pandering as usual .

Be honest - if people answer this specific question in a reasonable way you will you vote for him? Or is this not a sincere question and instead an attempt to deflect?

I thought it was a legit question. I'm seeing a change in California and New York saying the CDC and fda aren't credible. I'm curious as to who Biden will listen to. Is he going to listen to someone who wants to see a complete lock down or some guy that says don't trust the vaccines?
