Sen. John Kennedy (R-La.) is arguing that the U.S. Economy — which he considers to be on the brink of collapse — needs to reopen.
During an interview with Fox News’ Tucker Carlson, Kennedy offered his opinion on the U.S. Economy and its impact on the world.
He also mocked the shutdown describing it as “foolish” while comparing it to burning down the village in order to save it.
“We’ve got to open this Economy. If we don’t, it’s going to collapse. And if the U.S. Economy collapses, the world Economy collapses,” Kennedy said. “And trying to burn down the village to save it is foolish. That’s a cold, hard truth.”
“Number two: Yes, we shut down, but the shutdown did not stop the spread of the virus. I wish it had. But it’s too late for that.”
