Yes, he's the President, and yes he's still facing re-election in a few months. I'm sure you think he should just ignore the airwaves and the internet to let these left wing hacks walk all over him, choking out any alternative messaging.

The man is working around the clock and CNN just continues taking swipes at him. That network is pure garbage. They made a BUSINESS decision (to help their bottom line) to become the anti-Trump network. It’s pure theater, and totally intentional snarky nonsense. I don’t blame Trump for taking a shot at them during an actual health crisis, before he returns to meetings to try and save your sorry politically vindictive arse! 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The MSM is doing their best to silence him. They don't want to televise his coronavirus briefings because the public likes them and thus likes Trump for having them. They see a president who is totally engaged in fighting this. This is the opposite of Obama who after the ACA never seemed to be engaged in anything. His Twitter comments get his message out. The media feel that they must filter what he says in order to inform the public in the way they want them informed. The MSM acts as if they are the Catholic Church in Medieval times and the reporters are the priests who interpret God's message for the peasants. Trump has found a way around that and there is no way he's giving that up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How does dunking on Mitt Romney on Twitter in the middle of a national crises help him in any way with his reelection chances? As for Obama, there wasn't a public crises of this magnitude when he was president. I prefer to see as little of a president as possible because it generally means the country is in pretty good shape. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe, but his strategy seems to be otherwise. The base will love it, the haters will hate ( weren’t getting them anyway) and the middle will decide based on the enormous difference in policy ideas. It’s not like the two parties vision for the country is even remotely similar. In more normal times, playing to the middle might be a better strategy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
