Come on, George, Trumps is freaking beautiful. It's not like all those women banged him for his personality.

That wiley Trump... He got all of those studies to change their results so people would stop taking it and he could make sure he had enough!
Damn, 4D Chess.

Maybe he's been sarcastic again. It's kind of hard to tell, even for a Brit.

Old is old, it’s always about power and money. I don’t think Trump is disillusioned about that although other old men might be.

You have the man in the most powerful office in the world. He's grappling with his and the world's most important policy agenda item.
He has access to the best medical and scientific minds in the world.
But when he talks in a public forum about what he's doing about this topic - well that's between him and his doctor. Why do you care? Why would anyone care?
It's kinda funny how the words of the President have become farts in the wind. Don't listen to what he says only what he does. But also not the things the HE does.

I don't see how you find your way home.

Because of the track record of the media, I don't believe anything. And those scientists? Not far behind. Let me have some coffee, maybe an egg. NO. It's bad for you, no, turns out it's good for you, no wine, wine OK, etc.
So the cynic in me says, "Hydroxychloroquine costs a buck, so of course that's not going to be touted as any possible benefit, actually the opposite: "it helps, it doesn't help, it can save your life, it can kill you, not tested enough, been using it for 60 years, yada yada."
For all I care, Trump can and will do whatever he wants. He's a known germophobe, doesn't drink or smoke. Imagine if there were pictures of him taking a drag on a cigarette or doobie like Obama. Oh, the horrors!!
Maybe he should come out and just say, "this hydroxy shit is primo man, like, a cheap high, THAT's why I take it." Then see what happens in the media.

Do I think that President Trump has handled the COVID -19 crisis very well? Absolutely not.
BUT, I think that if there had been a Democrat president, it would have been just as bad. I just really don't think that either side would have been very good with this.
In a different reality, there is a Democrat President. And the funny things is, it is the Republics who are complaining because the Democrats want to re-open the country too soon. And the Democrats are accusing the Republics of trying to kill the economy.
Democrats - "This virus is hurting the working people. We are the party of the working people, and shutting down the economy is not helping them and their livelihood. The Republics really do not care about people!!!"
Republics - "There is no livelihood if there is no life. We have a long term vision and if we open up too soon, not only is there short term damage to the economy but long term as well. We need to keep the lockdown in place! The Democrats really do not care about people!!"
I truly believe that is what would happen if there were a Democrat as President right now. Politics in the US are so divided, that if a Republic says "black", the Democrat has to say "white", even if they dont really believe it. And the opposite is true also.
It seems like being against the other party is more important than the overall good of society.

This is not about Democrat vs. Republican. This is about Trump being incompetent. Democrats like Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton as President would handle COVID-19 better than Trump. Republicans like Mike DeWine and Jeb Bush and Mitt Romney as President would handle COVID-19 better than Trump. This is not a matter of Democrat vs Republican, it's a matter of Trump's incompetence dragging most of the federal government down with him.

You have some of your statements wrong. The democrats are not wanting to reopen the country too soon, most of the democrats don't want to reopen at all. The republicans aren't complaining about democrats wanting to reopen too soon, they are complaining about the democrats not wanting to reopen, they are complaing because while millions of US citizens are on the verge of going broke, the democrats are trying to push through a 3 trillion dollar "stimulus" that pays illegal aliens, gives more money to Planned Parenthood, bails out Democrat run cities that have bankrupted their cities spending money of foolish crap, giving money to marijuana growers, and a bunch of other stupid stuff, practically none of the money going to help American citizens.
I also disagree with your conclusion that Trump hasn't done a good job re the pandemic. Let me tell you why - while Trump has been putting in 14-16 hour days 7 days a week trying to manage this mess, the democrats took a vacation. The governor of New York got on TV every day whining that he didn't have enough ventilators. He never bothered to mention that the reason he didn't have enough ventilators is because he chose to not buy any, and spent the money on solar panels. He whined that he didn't have enough hospital beds, so Trump immediately sent a hospital ship to do nothing but handle virus patients, and outfitted a convention center to be a hospital. Plenty of beds thanks to Trump - so what does the NY governor do? Orders covid patients to be put in nursing homes along with the nursing home patients, and didn't even use the hospital ship, and I don't think he even used to convention center hospital that Trump set up. When the old people in the nursing homes got infected and died like flies, what did the NY governor say? He said "hey - old people are going to die soon anyway, so what!"
It can be said that Trump could have done a few things better. But hindsight is 20/20 and no one, looking back on things, ever gets things 100% correct. But making mistakes means you're doing something. The reason you can't find many mistakes made by democrats is because most of them haven't been doing anything. The ones who do, like the NY governor doesn't have his mistakes talked about much because the media doesn't report bad news on democrats.
The republicans did not say anything about opening up too soon. You have gotten the Democrat and Republican positions completely backwards.
