I just heard Trump on the radio, while driving the car. He spoke of his (virtual, I presume) meeting, this morning, with the leaders of the G20, as well as of the WHO, IMF, etc.
He spoke of all the things that are being done to fight this virus, right now. He spoke of the hospital ships that are arriving in NY and LA, today and tomorrow. He spoke of all the medical supplies that are quickly being manufactured right now, to offset the current short fall. He admitted that the US was not prepared for an onslaught like this virus. He did not blame the previous administration for being unprepared. His presentation was calm and full of optimism.
After all the gloom and doom we have listen to from our so-called medical experts, it was a bit refreshing to listen to a more optimistic outlook for the future.
I cannot express my thoughts as eloquently as metmike does.... I can only echo his thoughts about this president.... you may not like Donald Trump, the man.... but you have to judge him by what he is doing for the People, for the USA.
What I heard on the radio today, IMHO, was what I would expect to hear from a POTUS..
I am tired of hearing the medical experts putting us into a panic...."run to the stores and buy whatever they have... you will all be starving to death in a few weeks. Toilet paper? Forget it... those days are gone... run to the store right now!..."
If I may use a cliche... the radio address may have been full of empty promises ( I sincerely don't believe it was), but it was "presidential"
