Elon Musk’s ventilator fiasco shows need for more oversight of Gavin Newsom’s mask deal
On March 23, Gov. Gavin Newsom made a dramatic announcement: Tesla founder Elon Musk was donating over 1,000 ventilators to California.
Newsom’s office now says Musk was supposed to deliver the ventilators directly to hospitals. So far, however, the governor’s office says no California hospital has received them

Feb 26th - “We're going very substantially down, not up.” Also "This is a flu. This is like a flu"; "Now, you treat this like a flu"; "It's a little like the regular flu that we have flu shots for. And we'll essentially have a flu shot for this in a fairly quick manner."
Trump should shut up and listen to the scientists..... RRREEEEEEEEE!!!!!

Cherry picked polls.

It doesn't matter. Whatever Trump did, it would have been wrong. When nearly all major media outlets are blasting the same message non-stop for years, it's impossible to believe that any TDS folks would change their minds for any reason. He could have personally cured coronavirus, and it wouldn't have happened quickly enough to get approval from the propaganda puppets out there.

Coronavirus’s toll on New York City became starker on Tuesday evening, as the city began to count the number of “probable COVID-19”

Mkay well I guess we're just making up numbers now, cool beans.

Well yeah, the people are starting to talk about going back to work. We can’t have people being free and earning a living. Be scared, stay home, only trust the government to provide for you.

my point though was there are other polls that showed trump reaching an all time high but @Jones decided not to mention those . it didnt fit his slanted narrative.

History reveals patterns. During a crisis, Americans typically rally around the flag — and their president. During the Persian Gulf War in 1991, George H.W. Bush’s approval soared 30 percentage points in six weeks to 89%. His son’s rocketed 40 points — in 10 days to 90% — following the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001.
Numbers like these — clearly bipartisan and nearly unanimous — tell us that while Americans are always hungry for leadership, that hunger is never so great as when it counts most: When lives are on the line, when there has been a shock to the system, when we are scared and need reassurance that all will be OK.
Yet such approval has eluded President Trump. Two poll of polls — Real Clear Politics and FiveThirtyEight — show his overall approval at 45.2% and 44.3%, respectively, right about where they were before the you-know-what hit the fan earlier this year.



Trump is odd man out as approval ratings soar for world leaders’ handling of the coronavirus pandemic
Real clear and 538 average the polls. Which ones are cherry picked? All of them?

his poll comparison is trumps pandemic to presidents with military actions . His comparison should have been to Obama's post pandemic poll results which are almost identical to what trump has.

2010 46.9 47.4 -0.5 2014 42.5 52.9 -10.4
2011 46.5 47.9 -1.4 2015 45.0 50.5 -5.5
2012 48.6 47.3 +1.3 2016 49.8 46.5 +3.3

he also chose to ignore that trumps poll numbers have strengthened during this time period which is why liberals are trying to get people to stop watching his daily press conferences.

Maybe it was because of the fact that he was heavily involved with the Democratic controlled sham of an impeachment trial which ended 5 February 2020.

"Heavily involved?". WTF are you smoking? He was playing golf, holding campaign rallies to take people's money and having parties at Mar a lago. His people were involved he was awol.

Trump should shut up and listen to the scientists..... RRREEEEEEEEE!!!!!
