Which of course starts with all his ridiculous and dismissive comments about the coronavirus.

It's as if Trump just writes these ads himself!

Because he knows he's screwed it all up by everything HE'S done . Now he's desperately repeating he's done a great job , because he knows he hasn't and is a fraud, and he knows his propaganda works. Some will still believe his BS and propaganda.

a 'crisis' manufactured by Democrats and the fake news media to go after Trump. Now they have to do a 180 degree pivot and contend that this Trump has known this was a pandemic long before anyone else did. I hope they have good chiropractors. They could be suffering from severe whiplash in the near future.

But he really owns the libs. So they wink and stick by him. Wonder if when they or their parents get sick and the medical system is so impacted they’re on the list of expendable people, if that’ll make them happy they are owning the libs.

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump
The Fake News Media and their partner, the Democrat Party, is doing everything within its semi-considerable power (it used to be greater!) to inflame the CoronaVirus situation, far beyond what the facts would warrant. Surgeon General, “The risk is low to the average American.”

If I see his tweets it's like this. The words "Trump said" are my cue to ignore and move on because whatever comes after those two words isn't worth my time. But thanks for sharing malaise. I love you. ❤

deliberately endangering millions of Americans including his own elderly supporters. Sounds like a real sociopath.
