Gowdy: I’m ‘Convinced’ Gov. McMaster Will ‘Follow the Evidence’ on Reopening the State of S.C.
EXCERPT:
GOWDY: "Yes, Steve, you used exactly the right word. It is really hard to weigh in balance, competing harms. Anybody in the world can choose between good and bad, but when you are choosing among competing harms it’s difficult. Henry McMaster is a former prosecutor. I am convinced that he’s going to follow the evidence. And if the medical data, the public health data says, 'Look, we can begin slowly to reopen, practicing social distancing,’ leaving it up to the local officials to open up beaches — I mean he’s given them the power but ultimately it's still their decision and we will phase it in. But, look, it is hard to choose between competing harms and that’s why very few people run for public office and very few people stay in it."
