This may be a tipping point like the 'Wall'
67% support a nationwide Covid-19 strategy, which Trump said in July— more than four months into the pandemic—that his administration was “in the process of developing”, and most Americans support a single national strategy for reopening schools and businesses.
Although Forbes, like other Media has put a spin on their interpretation of their own poll numbers by referring to other media on 'dissatisfaction with Trump' fact remains, Trump is only person willing to shoulder responsibility.
A majority of Americans support strong measures to slow the spread, including government funding to expand free Covid-19 testing (85%), state laws requiring wearing a mask “in public at all times” (76%), a temporary ban on interstate travel (55%) and federal funding for manufacturing personal protective equipment and testing supplies and distributing an eventual vaccine to all Americans (83%).
Quote is from Forbes Aug 4 article and we are in Sept. Moreover the staff reporter of Forbes is blatantly against Trump and mischievous in her assembly of facts. There's no doubt that people believe Trump is the best crisis manager.
Here's what Atlantic says;
When China began confining millions of people to their homes in January, the U.S. government should have gotten the message that the Chinese were grappling with a grave threat to the wider world, the Yale sociologist and physician Nicholas Christakis told me in March. “We lost six weeks” in the United States to prepare—“to build ventilators, get protective equipment, organize our ICUs, get tests ready, prepare the public for what was going to happen so that our economy didn’t tank as badly. None of this was done adequately by our leaders.”
By one estimate, from the epidemiologists Britta L. Jewell and Nicholas P. Jewell, if social-distancing policies had been implemented just two weeks earlier in March, 90 percent of the cumulative coronavirus deaths in the United States during the first wave of the pandemic might have been prevented.
Atlantic is a coffee table rag.
If Trump had overridden NY Dem govt. to keep bars open he would've faced
second impeachment by the woman who visited the Beauty Salon the other day.
