    I would say that after a disastrous start, Trump was doing pretty well. And then he apparently got bored with it all and wants to open everything up again.

    People rally around the President when a disaster happens. In a month's time, they're not going to approve of Trump because the situation on the ground is going to be godawful. There's not much Trump can do about that, but he is the man at the top, and whether he likes it or not, the buck stops with the President.

    You think that is Trump's fault? That says much more about you than Trump.

    "In my view, it would be an outrage to prevent working-class Americans to receive the emergency unemployment assistance included in this legislation," Sanders said in a statement.

    Either Sanders doesn't know what he's talking about or he's drunk.

    Trumps daily press briefings bypass media spin.

    He's got the experts on daily-explaining why they are doing what they are doing.

    The desperation of the left to take down Trump at any cost for the last several years has turned to just pathetic.

    Its pathetic. Many of you are pathetic.

    Of course he does. It’s sad that many people refuse to watch it and instead just it up the Mika and Joe spin

    Yeah its funny because the ratings are through the roof at these pressers, and Americans are getting the real scoop-but orange man is bad, so the media will try not to cover these daily events.

    We must take such things like "He is as popular as he has ever been" with a grain of salt (and look at it in "relative terms").

    For example, Trump was elected with the votes of ONLY 27% of Eligible Voters.

    Thus: 73% of the America's Eligible Voters DIDN'T Vote for Trump.

    In other words:

    Trump started at ROCK Bottom, and he has done very little to help himself (with Immature Twitter Rants, and siding with White Supremacists (like Stephen Miller), Etc.).

    It seems inevitable, that when one starts from the ABYSS of having only 27% of Eligible Voters Facilitating His Election, that (at some point) they would become "more popular".

    Still, even this "high water mark of popularity" (that Trump is jumping up and down about) is ONLY 49%.

    Just saying. :salute:

    This guy is NOT a Trump supporter-but even he can't take the bias.

    I don’t think many people believe in open borders Biden during the Coronavirus.

    Biden brain is slipping by the day & his wife Jill will probably be hand feeding him Jello by election day.

    Just don’t get Joe a Happy Meal at McDonalds.
    He gets angry when he gets a prize that he already has.

    Not only that Gallop has his approval for handling the China Virus at 60% and ABC had it at 55%.

    Look and the independents and their support, that is key. And he's even almost double his support with DEMOCRATS

    Partisan armchair quarterbacks don't really understand just how difficult a job it is to be president, and how truly workmanlike and productive this president actually is.

    And they are going to put this guy up on a stage debating Trump? Cuomo is trying to make his move here, get a broker convention and he come riding in as the COVID hero.

    Your optimism is sort of funny. Now I'm totally going to have four milliseconds of guilt before I laugh at you in November.

    You still think open borders Biden is the answer...

    We had no epidemics you can cut funding and fund them when we do. And no it was not cut there was a consolidation of three agencies doing the same thing or running efficiently because they were separated. It was a good move a paying off. And he did shut down travel from China and was called a racist xenophobe and the CDC screwed up our test to begin with but that was corrected and we have tested more than anyone else and that is still accelerating and our private industries are still developing newer and better and simpler test.

    How about talking about what good things are happening.

    Understandable. Mike, Joe and company are doing all they can to spin the reality but frankly his daily briefings and his handling of this has shown just how presidential he is
