Trump Adviser Attempts To Clarify Telling People To ‘Rise up’ Against MI Coronavirus Restrictions

🏛️White House coronavirus adviser 👤Scott Atlas is seeking to clarify his remark after he pushed back on news of Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D) imposing stricter coronavirus restrictions.

In response, Atlas — one of the president’s coronavirus task force advisers — warned, “The only way this stops is if people rise up. You get what you accept.”

Atlas then sought to clarify his remarks later Sunday when he wrote in another tweet, “Hey. I NEVER was talking at all about violence. People vote, people peacefully protest. NEVER would I endorse or incite violence. NEVER!!”
