    I suspect that any "advice" Democrat "leaders" provided over the course of that time frame would not suddenly excuse Trump from FAILING TO DO HIS JOB.

    Correct. And do you know one of the main reasons why it took until March 13th to close down essential businesses - just in your county alone?

    Because Trump spent six ****ing weeks telling the entire country that there was nothing to worry about because he had shut it down.

    Fauci is for saving lives one at a time
    Opening the economy is for saving the entire country.

    The media outlets are overtly working for the political interests of the DNC and so why shouldn't Trump set the record straight during a time of national crisis? It's part of his job as leader. Failing to fight back against political propagandists allows a nation to slip into anarchy while causing immediate and direct harm to the people.

    Why should Trump be applauded for spending taxpayer money to bash selective cuts from the media during a pandemic?

    Failing to fight back against political propagandists? Trump blamed the stock market drop on the Democratic Debate.

    He attacked the media because they dare to ask him tough questions about the decisions he made that directly resulted in 1500 Americans dying yesterday from this virus.

    The political propagandists of the Dem Party's leadership and the leftist allied MSM worked together to panic the nation, wreck the stock market, and cripple the economy. Trump is fighting back against them, as he should.

    Seriously? You think governors across the country shut down the economy (many waiting until after Trump's explicit urging) and the market tanked because of...democratic party leadership and the leftist allied MSM?

    Wow, recognizing the government is run off of taxpayer money is quite a step. Welcome to the almost center left on the political spectrum.
    If the airports don't re-open soon CNN is toast.

    Stop with your BS. You and I nor anybody else has any idea of what your President knew or didn't know. You and the media give yourself away every time you add comments in your declarations such as "as far as I can tell" or "unnamed sources"
    As for these "reporters" in the daily briefings, I think Trump should lock them out and cut the briefings down to 10 minutes. Anything more becomes fodder for the usual suspects to twist and distort the following day.
    You were one of the OP leaders during the Mueller report, Kavanaugh hearings, impeachment hearings, and now this. I am beginning to think you are unhappy with the Trump presidency.

    CNN has always been out of touch with normal Americans. Never more than now.

    I have made absolutely zero efforts to hide my belief that Trump is a ****ing moron who is also corrupt and a massive ****ing liar. The fact that we have a reality TV star in charge during a *******n global pandemic can directly be traced to the tens of thousands of dead Americans - so far.

    And if Trump wanted to stop appearing at these press briefings, every single American would be better for it.

    Typical, "orange man bad" rant. Devoid of facts.

    Instead he said we have this virus totally under control and said that an outbreak was not inevitable and said that anyone who wants a test can get a test and said that we would very soon be going from a dozen cases down to zero and said that he shut it down and said that the virus would disappear one day like a miracle and said you're a terrible reporter in response to a question about his message to the millions of scared Americans.

    Did I give you enough facts?

    The 'experts' you said he should listen to were saying the same thing. Checkmate. Thank goodness he didn't listen to the 'experts' when he restricted China travel, over the objections of Democrats.

    You can't hold Trump to statements made early in this rapidly changing situation while not holding 'experts' he was relying to to their early wrong statements. Dr. Fauci said in late February the virus threat was miniscule and only theoretical, and btw, absolutely no reason for Americans to wear masks.

    Is that enough facts?

    I disagree, and think he's doing a great job, thank goodness Sleepy Joe wasn't POTUS now or we'd be much worse off.

    So don't watch, next problem.

    WRONG.

    Local leaders could have taken action independently, like Trump took action.

    Do you not see that your own meltdown makes Trump look better by comparison? Im sure he appreciates you hanging on his every word.
