Mick Mulvaney: Fail of the Century
Manage episode 328868435 series 2949505
Mick Mulvaney describes the sledgehammer approach to Covid-19 that shut down global economies for months as one of the biggest mistakes of the 21st Century.
Mulvaney was President Donald Trump’s acting chief of staff when the pandemic hit. He says the withholding of information by China and the poor advice Trump was receiving from key advisors including Dr Anthony Fauchi led the US to over-react with economic intervention which set the pattern for other countries around the world.
“I think it will go down as one of the worst mistakes of the 21st century,” Mulvaney told Nick Cater in a Menzies Research Centre podcast. “I hope we don’t make any bigger mistakes than that.
“You can’t beat a virus into submission. You can’t bully it into going away. We’ll be paying the price for this literally for generations.”
In a wide-ranging and candid conversation with Nick Cater of the Menzies Research Centre, Mulvaney shares insights into the Trump White House and explains what led him to resign on January 6, 2021, the day of the Capital Hill riots.
