....for stupidest statement of the year is Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman, who has argued that the failure to remove Donald Trump from office cost 600,000 lives to COVID, claiming that not only would they be alive, but they would be walking the streets today.
Given that they don't give oak leaves to people with IQs of 60 (despite what sergeants might tell you), I think it's safe to say that Lt. Col. Vindman is indulging a vendetta against President Trump. He certainly knows that a great portion of victims were aged and in nursing homes, and were in no condition to walk the streets even before the 'rona, and he certainly also knows that the worst states to be in for coronavirus were those run by Democrats. He also certainly knows that if Mike Pence had had some great ideas to deal with the epidemic, he had the ear of Donald Trump. In other words, he's almost certainly aware that his statements are a load of bull.
Really, the man is lucky (or clever) that he was walked out the door and is no longer subject to military justice, and that he wasn't making these inane statements under oath. He knows better, but is still saying it because he knows that the media will repeat it and help him with his little hissy fit.
