Parsing of words seem to be going on also, don't think $2 Trillion Big Debt spending package would have been deployed to dclare war on a mere 'hoax'.

Some of the remarks included Trump downplaying the seriousness of the coronavirus outbreak.
Trump's comments depicted in the video were previously discovered to be misleading.


President Donald Trump's reelection campaign issued a cease-and-desist letter to television stations that aired an alleged "patently false, misleading, and deceptive" campaign advertisement by a political action committee.
A video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bkMwvmJLnc0&feature=youtu.be) created by Priorities USA Action Fund (PUSA), a PAC which has supported Democratic presidential candidates, showed a fluid chart of coronavirus cases while unflattering comments previously made by Trump were played in the background.
Some of the remarks included Trump downplaying the seriousness of the coronavirus outbreak.

"PUSA stitched together fragments from multiple speeches by President Trump to fraudulently and maliciously imply that President Trump called the coronavirus outbreak a 'hoax,'" the letter said, adding that Trump was "abundantly clear" in referring to the "Democrat's politicization of the coronavirus outbreak" when making the description.
"Because PUSA's ad's central point is deliberately false and misleading, your station has an obligation to cease and desist from airing it immediately to comply with FCC licensing requirements, to serve the public interest, and to avoid costly and time-consuming litigation," the letter added.

On an unrelated note, pretty incredible if this is not fakenews:

Man dies from coronavirus after calling it a ‘political ploy’

By Lee Brown

An Ohio man who dismissed the coronavirus pandemic as a “political ploy” and ripped his state’s lockdown (https://nypost.com/2020/03/12/ohio-maryland-and-new-mexico-close-all-schools-amid-coronavirus-outbreak/) as “bulls–t,” has died of COVID-19, according to reports.
John W. McDaniel, 60, passed away last Wednesday in Columbus — exactly a month after reportedly firing off a series of angry messages about the contagion.
“Does anybody have the guts to say this COVID-19 is a political ploy? Asking for a friend. Prove me wrong,” he wrote on March 13, according to the Sun (https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/11441636/john-mcdaniel-killed-coronavirus-dismissing-political-ploy/).
Two days later, McDaniel reportedly called “bulls–t” on Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine’s stay-at-home order closing bars and restaurants.
John W. McDanielFacebook “He doesn’t have that authority. If you are paranoid about getting sick just don’t go out. It shouldn’t keep those of us from living our lives,” he wrote, according to the reports.
“The madness has to stop.”
The posts have since been deleted, but were saved and shared widely on social media, including by coronavirus talking head Dr. Dena Grayson (https://twitter.com/DrDenaGrayson/status/1252297227403431937).
McDaniel’s obituary confirmed (https://www.snyderfuneralhomes.com/obituary/john-w-mcdaniel/) that he died “with his loving family by his side
