I am no fan of Trump but quite frankly he has handled this situation about as good as could be expected. Unfortunately, a good part of the media, because of their inherent bias, puts a negative spin on everything he has said and done. The vitriolic hatred that exists on this site is "almost" beyond belief.
A lot of them truly are blinded by hate... Yet they will claim anyone who doesn't support their twisted world view is stupid and incapable of making good choices for themselves.

No, that's not just anger.....it's an obsessive hatred. Too bad you had to go and have kids and pass it on.....
It's not hatred. You and a number of other Trump fans just think so because you don't recognize your own projection. For some reason that I don't understand (except for a military person or two) many of you get emotional, get upset about Trump being criticized. He's a politician. With some of you, someone might get the impression that he's your dad, brother, cousin, husband, or friend (when he obviously isn't any of those things) with how sensitive you are about criticism of him.

As COVID-19 spreads inexorably across the country, Trump can't hide behind excuses. Oh, I'm sure there will still be morons who will vote for him. My brother is one of them. Many of Trump's supporters have already changed their minds, though, and more will follow as people they know and love start getting sick. The cultists won't be swayed and I accept that, but at this point I would crawl on my hands and knees even if I have a 105 degree fever to vote against Trump. I'm sure I'm not the only one who feels this way.
You are not the only one. Wisconsin voters braved a pandemic, mile-long lines and bad weather to vote against the GOP by a 10-point margin.

I think if you watch his live situation reports you can draw your own conclusions to his handling of the situation, the media doesn't have to do a thing for the "negative spin" to be seen. And your right many posters for both sides on this site could use some professional help....

100%!
I never understand why voters fall in love with any politician, they are there to do a job. There hasn't been one politician in my years on earth who I felt affection for or love. Not even the ones I voted for and supported.
I also don't understand why people would put someone into the most important office in the country who a) isn't qualified nor has any experience working within the government b) isn't emotionally mature c) has a history of conning people, defaulting, bankruptcies, d) has the vocabulary of a junior high student at best and e) is a known liar.
That type of person wouldn't be considered for a low-level manager job, yet because he's a reality TV star and wealthy self-promoter he's the right candidate for the most serious and important job in the country? AS IF.
