Trump’s Pressers


Liberals are getting increasingly upset with Trump and his daily China-virus pressers. An easy measure of this hostility can be seen in the angry questions (really accusations) being thrown at him by the liberal media (snipers). Why is this?

My guess is that Trump is a straight-shooter ... he speaks without much equivocation ... and his favorability ratings with the American people is going up accordingly ... hitting 55% this week. This reaction infuriates Libs even more. Of course, he isn’t always right ... but he is not shy about making decisions ... “What have we got to lose.”

Does the left want to stop these pressers because they are working? That is my suspicion.

Your favorability number is faux news, according to 538

I don't see any infuriated Libs.

My guess is that some have called for cable outlets to stop giving Trump a stage for his self aggrandizing ego-trip and spreading misleading information. (EG they can wash masks with liquids for re-use. And other face-palm inducing inanities.

Is the Right not entitled to its own fake news?

(You have earned another cluster on your sniper badge.)

I concede that there is bias in reporting. But what the Right calls "hoax" and "fake" includes anything they don't like.
Showing video clips of "leaders" making contradictory statements is not fake.
Taking quotes out of context is a fault of both sides.
Politicizing crises is a fault of both sides.

Trump's only contribution to these pressers is talking about how great he is and how perfect they are handling things and pointing out how he is not to blame for anything. Despite calling it a "hoax" three weeks ago, he now says he knew it was a pandemic before anyone else. How can you believe anyone who lies about things that are so easily disproved?

Trump’s bluster is easy to forgive since it is clear he is trying to fix things ... unlike Pelosi and Schumer who are trying to take advantage of things. This disdain for Americans will not be forgotten.

Celebrity Pandemic Apprentice.
You dismiss lies as mere "bluster"? Inconvenient facts?

The Dems want the bill to help the little people not big corps. How is that disdain for Americans?

Wake up and smell the coffee!

Do us all a big favor ... read the House bill Pelosi is pushing.

I admit that don't have the patience to read long boring prose anymore. I prefer to lecture others based on stuff I read on Twitter.

I have read too much dystopian fiction. I fear this will not end well. Hopefully, it will not be zombies.

The Senate bill allows Trump to be the oversight of spending. The guy who stole from his own charity foundations. Yeah I trust him.

He will obviously just bailout his hotels and golf courses ...
