Does anyone else see it over the last four to five days?
I see a compassionate, caring President who is concerned for his people and who is trying to make good decisions. I see less bickering with the other side of the aisle.
I like what I see and he deserves to be called PRESIDENT Trump and not Trump.
I also see a good Vice President and that is Mr. Pence, not Mr. Biden as some are calling him VP. He is a former VP and should be called former.
Will this build Trump’s base?

Trump's base is solid, but I don't see this adding to it. The amount of Trump negativism out there on most every news outlet is overwhelming. The only way I personally see this adding to his base is if somehow this thing gets under control more quickly than summer time. Then, it could be heavily "spun" in his favor.

There is a pretty bad video out that shows a calendar starting two months ago and everyday plays a video clip of him saying some pretty dumb things about the virus. It will be hard for him to distance himself from a lot of those statements. I thought his last three press conferences were great. Today he is off to a bad start. His election was and will be tied to the economy. If he brings us out of this before the election he wins in a landslide. If not dementia Joe, come on down.

I think it will turn a few to Trump, since the Dems spent so much time and effort politicizing the CV. It will all depend on the market. If we go back to 24,000, 25,000+ I think he is in again.
If things are still "ugly" in Sept and Oct, could be different story.

These are actual US numbers. Maybe there’ll be more but, as I’ve said, more than 300 a day are dying from the common seasonal flu.

I also see a good Vice President and that is Mr. Pence, not Mr. Biden as some are calling him VP. He is a former VP and should be called former. Will this build Trump’s base? Quite frankly, I'm I see things in black & white. President Trump is a human being that was right for such a time like this. He's been able to handle all of the media hate for him since he won the GOP nomination in the summer of 2016. The left is completely venomous, I don't know particularly why, I didn't agree with President Obama all the time but I don't believe he was racist or his followers hated me. Same would go to Bush or (Bill) Clinton.
2016's election something changed it was an all out blitz of hate speech. Honestly, only the person knows their real hearts intention. I don't hate liberal minded people, I will say though, every democrat or left leaning people I know, are extremely venomous towards anyone with moral views or conservatively minded.
I really don't understand personally why someone that is liberal isn't even more accepting than I am personally. The world Liberal literally means "open to new behavior or opinions and willing to discard traditional values" & "(of education) concerned mainly with broadening a person's general knowledge and experience, rather than with technical or professional training." Yet the Liberal side seems filled with extreme hate where I would almost categorize them as malicious or even leaning demonic in nature.
I am not a perfect person but I try to like all people, or if I don't care for a particular person I change the channel or don't hang around with them socially. I don't fill the internet or minds of others with hate speech for them or their beliefs.
Trump, as I view him, is a compassionate person that cares truly about the American Value system and it's people, whether they like him or not.

I personally don't see Trump getting many more votes than he did in '16. What will be needed in '20 is for a bunch of the folks who voted for Hillary in '16 to stay home.
Trump is a polarizing figure. I didn't like him as a human being in '16 and didn't really think he was a true Republican (used to be anti-gun, now pro. Used to be pro-abortion, now anti). I still don't like the guy to be honest. I'll vote for him again, but that doesn't mean I like him...simply that he is once again the best candidate for the job.

He has done a horrible job of attracting older middle of the road voters. They despise the way he behaves. It makes me laugh, but the way he escalates everything with the left and foreign countries is not needed nor helpful.

The media, most in congress, and the corrupt foreign leaders don't deserve an ounce credibility or consideration. I'd be relentlessly MF'n the piss outta them every day too.

I have seen a pro Trump switch in many rural middle of the roaders. I agree about his rhetoric.

I had started this thread before I heard about the incident with reporters.
