  1. When you think about it, it’s pretty impressive that t’rump manages to talk for 2 hours using a total of 100 words. 🤔😄😆

    1. You give him too much credit out of those 100 words he uses 15 variations of the words powerful, great and strong so only about 58 words really.

    2. @john mansell That’s what I was thinking, too. I wouldn’t give him credit for knowing more than 50. “Tremendous, no one’s ever seen anything like this, who would’ve thought this could happen, powerful, no one saw this coming, no one believed this was possible, and fake news.” There. I have saved everyone from having to watch him anymore.

    3. And 90% of it is written for him and he reads at the level of a 3th grader. He is so dumb, it’s hard to listen.

  2. tEump talks way to too much & ever increasingly makes himself appear the fool. He should stfu & let the experts speak!

    1. Baby drumphf We all should pray for a miracle that a flying corncob is launched into the his pie hole, and becomes permanently jammed.😁

    2. Dittz : I would jam that corncob so far down his gizzard that it would be permanently lodged in the hopes of his demise.

    3. He will not stop. The media needs to stop pretending that he is going to be able to do anything but spread more lies and propaganda. We need to hear accurate information about the virus. It does not come from him. Many more people will here because his disinformation campaign.

  3. This isn’t news. Trump loves to mention himself and since in-person rallies can’t be held anymore, he is using the daily “press briefings” as his own televised propaganda.

    He has tweeted about TV ratings during briefings more than COVID-19.

  4. Donnie is a legend in his own mind. He has the cranial capacity of a house fly combined with the attention span of a moth.

    1. @Sean Sparks Yeah but when it sinks he’ll chuck the women and children in first to make sure the sharks are well fed.

    1. Little?more people showed up to them then the corona death toll you losers have been whining about🤣🤣🤣🤣

    2. @Joe Bidens Leg Hair
      That just shows how many stupid people there are in the u.s.
      In the future they will be called what they are, HATE RALLY’S.
      Lead by a clown, put a orange fuzzy wig and a red rubber nose on him. And call him donald mcdonald. Jbn

    3. The White House is looking to get him back out there, gonna send Pence first. To you know test the air 🦠🦠🙂

  5. Trump – “Does any one have any questions?”
    Reporter- “Yes, I have a question for someone other than you.”
    Problem solved.

    1. @keith wilson And thank goodness Stephen and Trevor and Seth were able to make that reality a little less depressing.

    2. Exactly. Stop asking him questions. He’s exploiting this disaster to get free airtime to spew lies and propaganda. Keep him off the air.

      47,000 American people are gone.

  6. The con man hogs the news so that he can campaign. He’s not interested in helping the states or American people. Trump’s ego blocks out useful scientific info. Throw the bum out.

    1. @abrams atwo 🤣🤣🤣🤣 the greatest.. No doubt.. How about him paying nis campaign rallies debt? It’s easy to sign a check handing out money that is not yours! The man is a joke!

    2. @abrams atwo you’re paying for the corporate tax cuts to the one percent whether you know it or not. And also you’re paying taxes on the tariffs due to increased costs of imported products.

  7. 2 hours a day of the ‘Crazy Donald Show!’
    Who will Crazy Donald blame today?
    Who will he call Nasty! Who will ‘Set- Him- Off!’

  8. These daily Coronavirus updates need to be limited to one hour. People want an updated status of the country from the medical and other experts, not a daily Trump rally filled with lies and propaganda.

    1. These are not press conferences. The orange one is still repeating lies designed to control his followers and distort their perception of reality. He has no credibility and should be kept off the air.

      We need to hear from state and local leaders who are sharing accurate information about the virus and how we can protect each other.

    2. Jack W indeed they will. You will hear these same fools crying for another four years of Trump’s presidency!

    3. @PJH199 1 don’t hold your breath .Trump is losing traction. Notice what’s been happening when he campaigns for someone . They lose in flying colors. And Trump will never win with only his base which is about 35 percent of the voting nlock. Where will he get votes from blacks . Hispanics . Muslims. Independents. Even the Lincoln project who are conservative patriots wants to rid the country of the party of trump. And Trump showed he is mentally unfit after suggesting people inject themselves with disinfectant. They vilify Biden but he would never say something that ignorant . I’m amazed republicans say nothing while Trump shows his declining mental profienciency.

  9. Trump’s legacy ” I take no responsibility” are we going to give him a second term to just not take responsibility? those who do must be crazy!

  10. Why even invite the doctors in his briefing when he would interrupt them whenever they speak the truth

    1. @1madmaxx80 the limping rhinoceros gets the most Doritos…..sorry, I’ve got cabin fever 😨

    1. @Ash Roskell you have to ask how come nobody from either party has been hospitalized, incubated or dead? All those folks at CPAC got it, except the politicians who attended. Rand Paul and Ted Cruz self isolated, early in this and that was it. They are old and none of them have it.🤔

    2. @PJH199 1

      Get a life, loser. I‘m mean seriously!
      🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

    1. He’s not a billionaire!!! He’s broke can’t pay his loans, but Putin and the oligarchs living in Trump Tower may save him with some more money laundering schemes!!

    2. @ronald rusin Watch this hand go into the bailout cash , now you see it , now you don’t have to pay it back …

  11. I must remind Trump and his base that he famously uttered these words “I alone can fix it “. Now Trump, when you gonna fix it ?

    1. Maybe Biden can get Chinas help . He and his kid certainly have enough experience when dealing with them. If Biden can remember that is.
