Donald Trump is idiotic as he stands on a TV stand for a briefing on how to survive covid-19 and muses about the possibility of ingesting Lysol bleach into a human to cure covid-19.  He's insane!  Then he says he was being sarcastic.  Then he says he has no idea why people drank Lysol on his advice.

Trump is THE joke!

Trump’s utter lack of grief, empathy is the coronavirus dog that didn’t bark

" . . . you’ve seen both Donald John Trump, 45th president of the United States, and Queen Elizabeth II in action, it came as absolutely no surprise that the United Kingdom’s soon-to-be-94-year-old monarch responded to the deadly coronavirus crisis in a four-minute speech that found exactly the perfect words that have so eluded Trump in literally dozens of hours on national TV."

Trump has not said one word in sympathy for the dead and dying Americans during his covid-19 campaign briefings.  His pitch is misinformation, open the economy, and stop picking on me when I say damnable lies.

Trump thinks covid-19 is all about HIM!

Consoler-in-chief? Lacking empathy, Trump weighs the economic costs, not the human ones
Instead of weighing the human costs alongside the economic ones, Trump seems to be thinking about something else: himself

Trump clearly states he doesn't know covid-19 briefings are to help USA, Americans to get thru the pandemic with fewest deaths.

Trump whines that the "media," professional news journalists, ask him to answer "nasty" [hard!] questions?

Trump says we should try to inject bleach to cure covid-19 and then when he is embarrassed for his stupidity he claims it was a "sarcastic" test to see what the media would say,!

This is all too incredible for reality, but it is Trump's reality.

Trump says briefings 'not worth the effort' amid fallout from disinfectant comments

The president remained behind closed doors after advisers reportedly warned him that the briefings were hurting his campaign

The President of the United States of America does not have the courage to stand up to hard questions from the media.

Here are the words of our President, IN CONTEXT BY THE WAY, JUST LIKE THE VIDEOS OF HIM SAYING WE MIGHT TRY INJECTING BLEACH TO CURE COVID-19.  Trump's latest dumb Press Secretary used the "out of context" excuse for the video.  Context is easy with Donald, he writes it!  He says it on TYV in front of cameras!

"After more than a month of near-daily White House coronavirus press briefings, Donald Trump stayed behind closed doors on Saturday after advisers reportedly warned the president that his appearances were hurting his campaign.

Trump himself referenced his absence when he wrote on Twitter that the briefings are “not worth the time & effort”. The president wrote the tweet on Saturday evening, when he would usually be taking the podium to address journalists."

Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump)What is the purpose of having White House News Conferences when the Lamestream Media asks nothing but hostile questions, & then refuses to report the truth or facts accurately. They get record ratings, & the American people get nothing but Fake News. Not worth the time & effort!

Amazing!  How much of a coward can a man be?  How stupid can a President be?  Trump sets new standards for cowardice and stupidity every day.
