trump vs paper bag

trump couldnt think his way out of a paper bag

he just has people bring options to him - he gives it 5 seconds of
thought - and then makes a choice

he probably does not ask a single question about his options

The interview you are likely thinking of is the Axios on HBO interview
with Jonathan Swan, which aired in August 2020.
During the sit-down, Donald Trump famously presented several printed
charts and graphs to argue that the U.S. was "lower than the world" in
COVID-19 death metrics. The argument became a viral moment due to a
specific disagreement over how to calculate those numbers:

The "Math" Dispute: Trump insisted on measuring the U.S. success by
deaths as a proportion of cases (case fatality rate), where the U.S.
numbers appeared more favorable because of high testing volumes.
The Counter-Argument: Swan countered by pointing to deaths as a
proportion of the population, noting that a thousand Americans were
dying per day.
The "You Can't Do That" Line: When Swan pressed him on the
population-based death rate, Trump famously responded, "You can't do
that. You have to go by the cases".

Another similar instance occurred in a July 2020 Fox News Sunday
interview with Chris Wallace. In that exchange, Trump claimed the U.S.
had "the best mortality rate" and called for his staff to bring out
papers to prove it, while Wallace corrected him by noting the U.S.
actually had one of the highest mortality rates in the world at the
time.
