Trump needs to let Pence and the doctors handle most briefings

[Insert Acts Pun Here] Posts: 12817 **4/20/20 12:05 pm**

I have watched the WH briefings closely for the past few weeks. I support Trump and will vote for him in November, but in my view he would be far better off not leading the briefings except when major developments occur, or perhaps once a week. He really is not helping with his â€˜cheerleadingâ€™, in my opinion. Watching him constantly sparring with an obviously biased press is generally disheartening, even though it is at times humorous to watch. I say let the experts speak. Also, Pence is so much more calm, intelligent and comforting in his demeanor than Trump is. Trump doesnâ€™t look like he even wants to be there, and generally just rambles if heâ€™s not defending himself.

Quiet Wyatt...AMEN

Piers Morgan is the one journalist that I think best "gets" Trump. Further, he will call Trump out from time to time--and has about this very thing.

As you have mentioned, Trump has made this about HIM and how wonderful HE is, and how bad the press is, and how incompetent the governors are, etc. He is playing to a choir that would vote for him if sacrificed a goat on the White House lawn.

But he is losing his standing with those who, depending on Trump's actions, will vote for him...or not.

Of course, there is NOTHING he could do to cause a huge number of people to vote for him. But he better try to win that undecided middle, or he's going hom in January 2021.

If Trump was not out there in front the left-wing would be attacking him for not leading. He could walk on water and he'd be criticized for being arrogant and self-serving... not to mention polluting the water.

2016: Hillary's chances to win....97%...by a landslide

What I have learned is Trump supporters are not public with their support of him. Why, because the other side will slit your tires and key your car. Many of the Trump supporters I know don't do so publicly and encourage their Trump supporting children to stay quiet.

As a Trump supporter, I at times cringe when he tweets or talks. He is facing the most powerful forces ...the DNC and MSM.

Trump will win 2020 but will do so with a larger margin. Not a landslide but larger margin.

Showing up to vote is a lot different than participating in a poll. Bernie supporters are lazy and won't get out and vote and those who do are doing a protest vote for Trump. Blacks and Hispanics are shifting from 10% vote for Trump to 30%+.

Ago the news mentioning Trump support among blacks as high.

Yep on the EC and that is the strategy he used to win. It is also why Trump doesn't come to Illinois because he won't win it.

Continuity of government may be a good argument for Trump to stay in power. "We have a plan to overcome this COVID 19 thing, and I need to see it through." or something like that.

I'm not sure if that will work, since they kind of wait and see how the disease is going before they make their decisions.

The issue is that I don't need the liberal press to tell me a lot of this stuff!

It's clear as day to anyone who has sense, that Trump apparently surrounded himself with landmines...then steps on them the first chance he can get.

As for the election, it's one thing to say "Stay the course," as another former president argued. But to postpone the election--especially if it doesn't seem fully justified--that would be something that almost certainly trigger a revolt--and rightfully so.

At least he needs to be on the same page as his people. The Doctors rolling their eyes as he speaks donâ€™t help. He shots from the hip to much about things he donâ€™t know much about. We all have our limits, but he donâ€™t know his. He is great at business. He donâ€™t need to try to be a doctor.
