The bounce is over and the celebrity President is going to be tanking.

snip://

A majority of Americans now disapprove of President Trump’s handling of the Wuhan coronavirus outbreak, according to an ABC News/Ipsos poll.

52 percent of Americans disapprove of Trump’s response to the pandemic, while 47 percent approve, according to the poll, which was conducted April 1-2 and had a 4.8 point margin of error. The same poll taken on March 18-19 reported 55 percent approval of Trump’s response versus 43 percent disapproval.


Good sign. But 47% is way too much!!

His core of right-wing authoritarians will likely never stop supporting him, but I think they’re in the 30%+ range.

Most people won’t accept the lies and his heavy toll on their lives.

ravings may be hurting him the most, especially when you compare his "briefings" to those of Gov. Cuomo. There's just no comparison, and it really exposes his shortcomings.

Think Trump just lost Pennsylvania in November...and I'm outta Civil War battles to use for comparison.

Watching the videos that healthcare workers post online when they come off their shifts is heart wrenching. They all look so scared and tired and we're still many days or even weeks away from the peak...and that's just NY. If they're already getting burned out and/or sick I don't know how they can keep functioning as a cohesive and effective unit much longer. They sure are heroes in my book. Our healthcare system may collapse under the weight of this moron's stupidity and arrogance. This is exactly why you should never put an imbecilic egomaniacal narcissist in the White House...one mighta thought that woulda been obvious to most Americans before they went ahead and stupidly did it anyway.

Everything Trump touches dies...and a lot of things he doesn't touch, too.
