No, he knew, the white hats knew but there weren't any good options other than this one. You think he's the President, with Q, and he doesn't know this shit? Come on man, really?

He told the nation from the beginning, kids are fine, they are young and healthy and their immune systems will take of them. The media and the cabal are to blame here, don't lose sight of that.
