Arguing that masks are ineffective maybe? If you think wearing a mask will protect you, it won’t, he was right about that. But it will protect others a little bit if you are sick, that’s what they’re for. We didn’t have enough PPE and Trump was stealing it and sending it to Russia, I figure he emphasized that masks don’t work so that n95 PPE (which would prevent infection) could be reserved for hospitals.
What mistakes though.

That’s exactly right. He made a mistake about the strategy. It happens. I still think the US is better for his having been in his role.
