No. A lot of folks love Trump. But what many who love Trump find endearing about him is the very offensiveness that cost him the election.
If you feel the need for a wrecking ball as President, and you get one, and he wrecks things, donāt blame MSM for that. He and his adherents took a risk the crass, counterpunching, take on all things liberal tough guy act would play. It did for a while then was rejected. In favor of a guy with the lowest enthusiasm rating among Dems in decades.
Time to retire laying everything at MSMās feet. Trump took a gamble and lost.

Except of course, he probably would have won if not for Covid.

Yeaā¦Not being able to handle a crisis is no biggie
A few years ago I think there was a symbolic hunger strike at Yale over tuition or stipends or something like that. They could eat, but they were going āhungry.ā Sounds about right.

Except he handled it fine, with the exception of not being a role model for wearing masks. I have seen zero evidence to date that Biden is handling it any better, again except for the mask thing.

Did he? Down playing it, telling the country its not that bad, all the while knowing how bad it really was. Mocking the wearing of masks etcā¦He did exactly the opposite of what needed to be done.

Leaders often downplay the bad news in a crisis. Panic doesnāt help anyone.

That is such a dishonest argumentā¦
Did you people not know that there were televised briefings about the severity of the virus and that latest developments everyday?
Did you not see the mobile hospitals in NY and hospital ships in NY (maybe Cuomo should have used them) and LA. The ramp of of PPE and ventilator production, the development of a vaccine in record time. I m sorry but I certainly recognized the severity of the virusā¦IMHO only idiots or political hacks would have had trouble recognizing that fact from the presidentās daily actions. What was trump supposed to doā¦run around the White House scaring people. We all knew it was serious and we knew daily what was being done about it. Please stop with the lieā¦your guy won get over it.
Biden gave an interview where he was asked what he would do differently than Trumpā¦he listed six things Trump had already done.
Bidenās in office now thanks to his running mate Covid 19ā¦itās time for clueless joe to put up or for him and his supporters to explain why he hasnāt been able to.

Hereās one of my favorite young, independent journalists and he focused today on Bidenās Town Hall gaffes. You can either laugh orā¦get scaredā¦because itās real.
Everything is clean too.

Turns out he did lie. Is lying a reason not to support or reelect a president?

I disagree. If he simply let the doctors talk and encouraged mask wearing and other behaviors to help mitigate the disease while the vaccine was being developed, hell, he could have sold MAGA masks, he would have won.

You people? Telling. He didnāt encourage mitigation. He encouraged people to ignore it.
