Donald Trump’s press briefing today is a total disaster
Donald Trump’s press briefing yesterday was a disaster, from his total lack of answers on coronavirus to his bizarre decision to offer well wishes to alleged sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell. So Trump decided that he’d try it again today, and it’s not going much better for him.
Trump once again stumbled his way through a prepared opening speech which he’d clearly never seen before and didn’t understand. At one point he said something completely incoherent about going into hospitals with a cure. Then he said “I’m finding more and more people are saying ‘wash your hands, so wash your hands.” Wait, was there a time during Trump’s presidency when experts were advising people against washing their hands?
In a sign that these press briefings are too little too late to turn anything around for Donald Trump, CNN once again didn’t even bother to air the briefing today until it reached the part where reporters were able to ask him questions. Trump claimed that Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot secretly wants him to invade her city. He also repeated his dangerous false claim that kids are all but immune to coronavirus. This is a disaster for him.
