Either way, he should know better to not speak about something that he is not an expert in. His job right now is to keep society calm and rational, and I feel he is doing the exact opposite.

I imagine most of us have been in technical meetings where people who have no idea about the real problem are speaking as if they are the expert. Its incredibly unproductive, and only slows down making real progress and and getting to a real resolution.

Even if he was right, which he is not, he should let his experts speak about these matters and get out of the way.
