You are correct, and I sincerely apologize. I hope that you also discuss the many posts where tRump supporters are wishing death to posters and their families simply for disagreeing with them.

* In 2018 Trump fired Homeland Security Advisor Tom Bossart, whose job was to coordinate a response to global pandemics. He was not replaced.
* In 2018 Dr. Luciana Borio, the NSC director for medical and bio-defense preparedness left the job. Trump did not replace Dr. Borio.
* In 2019 the NSC’s Senior Director for Global Health Security and bio-defense, Tim Ziemer, left the position and Trump did not replace the Rear Admiral.
* Trump shut down the entire Global Health Security and Bio-defense agency. Yes, he did.
* Amid the explosive worldwide outbreak of the virus Trump proposed a 19% cut to the budget of the Centers of Disease Control and Prevention plus a 10% cut to Public Health Services and a 7% cut to Global Health Services. Those happen to be the organizations that respond to public health threats.
* In 2018, at Trump’s direction, the CDC stopped funding epidemic prevention activities in 39 out of 49 countries including China.
* Trump didn’t appoint a doctor to oversee the US response to the pandemic. He appointed Mike Pence.
* Trump has on multiple occasions sowed doubt about the severity of the virus even using the word hoax at events and rallies. He even did it at an event where the virus was being spread. Trump has put out zero useful information concerning the health risks of the virus.
* Trump pretended the virus had been contained.
* Trump left a cruise ship at sea for days, denying them proper hospital care, rather than increase his numbers in America.

I see where Terminally Deranged replied to your facts post with the comment "meaningless bullshit". Like I said, the guy is unstable.
 
tRumps approval rating has dropped EIGHT points in FIVE days. That may be a record drop during an actual national emergency.

Trump is his own worst enemy. His mouth is his tool of self-destruction. His daily briefs are doing more harm than good. He needs to STFU and just let Pence and Fauci do all of the briefing.

You are 1000% correct. Sadly, trumps massive insecurity and ego refuses to allow his gums to stop flapping. I hope he keeps up the grandstanding. His yapping will make excellent Biden campaign ads.

I stated once before, but it is worth repeating. I have a subordinate who I greatly respect and he is a trump supporter. He told me recently that he likes where the country is, but cant stand the twitter bullshit and constant lying that trump does. He said that he was hoping trump might actually "grow" into a respectable president, but now realizes that wont happen.

Either that or he knows there's really nothing he can say, so he's just covering his eyes and hoping the facts go away.

Actually, for his core of supporters, it literally doesn't matter what he says. Just the fact that he is on TV speaking is all the reinforcement needed. They are really kind of easy for him to keep.

Fanatics always exist. The difference is what percentage are fanatical enough to believe whatever dribbles out of his mouth.
 
Just saw on the news a poll that states 53% of Americans support Biden over Trump. That could improve or worsen as time goes on but most importantly is whether or not that 53% of Americans actually shows up on election day. "Liking" or "Thanking" someone on FB or a political forum isn't the same as voting.
 
Trumpism is a cult not unlike Jonestown. They can see what craziness Trump is saying and going, but they believe. Logic and facts are swept away as lies because they do not reinforce the con. The problem is never Trump but the data and experts have to be ignored as biased or they should be replaced by alternative facts. Trumpism is just a clown show of flawed and easy people. We have to survive this mess and it will not be easy.

The healthcare updates are Trump rallies. He is not providing facts and data and leaving. He goes on long meandering tirades that are personal and political. The problem is they are so crazy that he is losing potential voters.
Trump should have a plaque saying "The Buck Stops somewhere else".
