There are 'Never Trumpers' and 'Trump Derangement Syndrome'. Which one are you? He's a man in the most powerful position in the world, trying to keep a positive attitude in the worst crisis since World War II. He's gathered the best people and has made difficult decisions to try to stem the spread and allocate national resources where they can do the most good. Cut him a break!!

It's true that the media will criticize Trump for anything. But even a broken clock is right twice a day.

The President's error was not in promoting ineffective medicine, but in promoting unproven medicine. He loves to hype things, even before the evidence rolls in. And with medicine, this can be genuinely dangerous. Doubly so in an environment where people are so panicky that they're hoarding toilet paper.

I wish he would take a page from Dr. Fauci and Dr. Birx, and not count his chickens before they hatch. He'd be more credible.

He says he's a wartime president now. Back in WWII, the rule was: "Loose lips sink ships."

A friend sent me a email this morning to sign a petition initiated by Move On. It is a petition to send to the network news to discontinue covering Trump's daily briefings on the virus because he is using it as a grandstand to... lie, and misinform the public about the virus while attacking the Democrats in order to get free campaigning. I declined to sign.
