What's a private browser?That reminds me, I'm going to look up this Maggie Haberman/Mark Meadows crying thing. Isn't he the Chief of Staff or something?I found it on CSpan and watched the first 22 minutes--
- he began with a few updates of states that are going to begin reopening and said it looks like, from the numbers, the "Plague" as he now calls it, we're WINNING
- he bragged about how much better we are than any other country: in deaths per capita (the least), our respirators (the best) our testing capacity (better than any other country) and how much the other countries praised him and asked for our expertise....
- he bitched about the Democrats, said they need to approve the additional money for the small business loans without a bunch of extra stuff they want
- he said all the equipment he had inherited to fight the pandemic was CRAP
- he was bitching about the media, the NYTimes and particularly how Maggie Haberman should give her Pulitzer back, and how she said Mark Meadows cried. Trump said its okay he cried, that he probably wasn't crying for the reason Maggie Haberman thought he was
and by then I'd had it. It was a rambling "between you and me" rally speech. I see it only went an hour. Supposedly Dr. Birx was going to speak at some point.
No real news. Just rally chat.
President Trump with Coronavirus Task Force Briefing
President Trump and members of the White House Coronavirus Task Force held a briefing on the federal government's response to the pandemic. The president spoke about the testing the United States has completed, approaching the downward side of the curve, and keeping the coronavirus numbers below...www.c-span.org
Thank you for that update, much appreciated. I simply cannot listen to Trump on these pressers for any length of time, not only is it depressing to listen to this idiot ramble on incessantly but it's also a complete waste of ones time, and you can't help but come away feeling less informed than you were before he started babbling.
Shit. Paywall. The NYT is Maggie's paper.

Meadows was a Representative from North Carolina who happened to be one of Trump's main cheerleaders, along with Gaetz of Florida, and Jim Jordan of Ohio, and he left to become Trump's new towel boy.
This happens every time we hear first thing in the morning on a Saturday or Sunday that Donnie has no C-19 campaign rally scheduled. But by noon he's changed his mind, drags Fauci and/or Birx away from their critically important work for two hours and bores the hell out of us with more of his egomaniacal, insecure blame games. Let Newsmax, Sinclair and Fox cover this crap. There is NEVER anything newsworthy. Just a pompous jerk making an ass out of himself.
And Republicans agree!
Republicans are worried Trump is hurting himself with rally-like performances at coronavirus briefings and are urging him to step back

Spin the wheel Dotard .. Spin the wheel!

If you haven't noticed, these daily pressers are starting to resemble his MAGA pep rallies, just with no pliant batch of sycophants heaping adoration on him. So it's not quite working out the way he wants it to but I guess he figures it's better than nothing. Trump won't let anyone take the lead, even if it means putting his entire leg in his mouth. He got his training wheels pulled for a week after March 13th. But he's wound his way back out front...and it's not working out well for him.
The photos of all those rednecks in Michigan wearing Trump hats, camo, and carrying guns while protesting for the right to assemble and carrying Trump signs are really amusing. One wonders what would happen if they actually showed up like that at a Trump rally. No way they would be allowed within half a mile of Trump.

I don't think "amusing" is the word you're looking for, is it? You're not really amused by it. I think "intimidated" is more like it, and I don't mean the guns

I think you need more than the idle comments of two senators
Lil Lindsey for one - How many more ya need?
Republican allies of Trump say his daily briefings are hurting him
Senator Lindsey Graham of South Carolina said Mr Trump 'sometimes drowns out his own message' and said a 'once-a-week show' could be more effective.www.dailymail.co.uk
To support the idea that Republican senators are even cringing at his daily spectacles? No you don't. And it's 3.
