« I don’t think he was attacking anybody at all. »
Jason Miller, a senior adviser to President Donald Trump’s reelection campaign, is defending his claims about health professionals amid the COVID-19 pandemic. ABC’s George Stephanopoulos noted during Miller’s appearance on “This Week” the American Medical Association responded to Trump’s claim doctors profit off of COVID-19 deaths. “Rather than attacking and lobbing baseless charges at physicians, our leaders should be following the science and urging adherence to the public health steps we know work towards reducing the spread of #COVID19—wash hands, #MaskUp and physical distance,” the organization said. He asked Miller why Trump repeatedly attacks doctors and says they are inflating COVID-19 numbers.
