Americans are facing a pandemic, and they’re desperately hoping to hear about progress when it comes to emergency medical supplies. Americans are also broke and hungry, and they’re hoping to hear about those $1200 checks they were promised that never arrived.

He’s completely tone deaf when it comes to what most Americans want to hear from a President, and he’s completely lacking self awareness when it comes to the fact that everyone knows he’s Putin’s puppet.
