“The question is whether or not we should be in a position where you, um, are – why can’t the, the, the experts say, ‘We know that this virus is, in fact, um, it’s going to be,’ or excuse me, ‘We know why all the drugs approved are not temporarily approved, but permanently approved.’ That’s under way too, I expect that to occur quickly.”son, Donald Jr, was among those delighting in Mr Biden’s incoherence. The Republican Party’s Twitter account also had some fun with it.
