Thankfully, the medical advisors reacted immediately and denied the president suggestions.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif\"><span style=\"font-size: medium\">The comedian Sarah Cooper really <span lang=\"en-US\">&#8220;<\/span>gets<span lang=\"en-US\">&#8221; <\/span>Trumps ideas and her lip-sync abilities make the best interpretations of his ideas.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=RxDKW75ueIU\">https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=RxDKW75ueIU<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-size: medium\">&#8220;They have been wrong about a lot of things, including face masks.
