It's not Trump who's 'rewriting history' on the coronavirus. It's the media

The national media was always going to rave about the Democratic convention while portraying the Republican one as a dark and cynical affair. But it was especially rich to see CNN’s Jake Tapper complain that the GOP had engaged in historical revisionism regarding the coronavirus, when that’s what the media have been doing for the past two months.

Republicans aired a video during the first night of the convention on Monday that highlighted several Democrats who praised President Trump for supporting their states with personal protective equipment and ventilators. The video also recalled the pundits and Democrats who, like everyone else, underestimated how contagious and deadly it could be.
