Donald Trump is frightened of being defeated by presumptive Democratic nominee Joe Biden. For one, Trump doesn’t want to become a one-term president, and for another, he doesn’t want to lose to former President Barack Obama’s friend — a man he is obsessively jealous of, as though he is still in competition with his predecessor. Well, all of the recent polls aren’t looking good for Trump, so he somehow thinks it would be a great idea to start doing daily pressers on the pandemic.
Trump again is choosing the wrong path. And the briefings only serve as MAGA rallies for him, though taxpayers fund them.
Trump resists facts that aren’t flattering to him, and that was made obvious once again during the president’s interview with Chris Wallace on Sunday. Trump held up a chart that proved he was lying, but the president is good at gaslighting — not with Democrats, but his base eats it up like candy.
At one point, to counter Wallace, Trump said: “Show me the death chart.” Those are startling words amid the potentially deadly pandemic that this president failed to act on when he first learned of the looming threat. And even now, Trump has surrendered to the coronavirus without even putting up a fight.

Not to brag or anything, but all of us at the Political Tribune knew that Trump’s interview would make a great ad for Joe Biden. OK, everyone knew that, really. The interview was spectacularly disastrous as it displayed a president that is devoid of empathy and allergic to facts even when they are presented to him on the air — and even though Americans’ lives are at stake.
So, I’m just going to leave this here:
Every day it becomes clearer: We are in a battle for the soul of this nation. Who we are. What we believe. Who we want to be. I`t’s all at stake.
We have to vote Donald Trump out this November.
