For some people Trump can't do anything right at all. They go to extremes and claim that all that he cares about is his net worth or being reelected. Seriously, when you are a billionaire you really don't have to worry about your net worth. There is no doubt in my mind that any modern American president is sincerely trying to do his best for the people of the United States. So for me personally, when the rhetoric gets too extreme I tend to tune the poster out and their real message is lost on me.
President Trump has done a lot of great things for America. Until two months ago America was booming and unemployment was way down. Many people were very happy with the way things had been going for the past three years.
How many angels can dance on the head of a pin? That's the kind of thing you are looking at when it comes to arguing about dates for the implementation of various policies to combat the coronavirus. There is no point in arguing over +/- 'x' weeks when you have 20-20 hindsight.
President Trump is not perfect and he is certainly not some compulsively lying monster out to make the life of the average American miserable. That kind of flavor of rhetoric is totally ridiculous.
Sometimes he is blunt and he speaks the truth in an Old School way. Considering that at the end of President Obama's second term people were arguing about who was allowed to go into girl's bathrooms, it can be quite refreshing to see him be blunt and speak the truth. The straitjacket of political correctness is fatiguing and it can often extend to the point that it is totally counter-productive. Look at some movie from the 1970s as an example. You will see people in benign conversations talking about ordinary life that often would be totally unacceptable in this day and age. Ordinary mundane conversations that in this day and age would result in people losing their jobs. To paraphrase George Carlin, "'handicapped' became 'physically challenged' which became 'differently enabled'". For many people President Trump speaks the truth and can be blunt at times and many people respect that, warts and all.
I am pretty sure that in America public health and health policy is a State responsibility. The Federal Government is there to overview and provide support if needed, and deal with national health issues and help with resource allocation when needed like now when there is an emergency. Time will tell how President Trump and the Federal health advisers and the individual States handled this crisis. Yes, there were a few stumbles but overall I think history will give them a passing grade. But President Trump is NOT some kind of incompetent fool when it comes to this crisis like some of you are trying to portray in your spin zone.

This act alone saved thousands of lives. Sorry liberals,Trump Derangement Syndrome is getting the best of you.

So much for Trump listening to Fauci. Only when it suits him. He's now angling to fire the guy.

We need to work positive on this. No need to find political rivals and enemies. I hear governors on both political sides in USA are cooperating. That is the only way forward. If we can not talk nice to each others here, how are we expected to live together in real life in the time to come?
Only if you believe Chinas numbers. Not many do it seems except of course Democrat’s and never Trumpers.Quote

China has aproximatly 1 billion more inhabitants than USA. Trump had much more time to prepare for what was comming. Still his administration failed, and ended up having more casualties than China. I think that speak for it self.
