Trump's approval numbers are the highest at any point in his presidency; 49%approve, 46%disapprove. The first time he has polled with Gallup, with numbers above water, meaning his favorable were higher than unfavorable.
The reason for this is that Americans are concerned about Covid-19 and are watching his daily press conferences. The TV ratings are through the roof for these pressers, and what's happening is that Americans are watching Trump first hand, rather than listening to the media's interpretation of what Trump has said or the media's interpretation on what Trump is doing. Trump has brought in the best America has in the medical field, to fight this virus, and people are seeing this during the pressers.
Americans are seeing Trump looking serious and presidential, and the media can't spin away that, when the people are watching it live. Also there have been multiple prominent Democrats and Dem Governors complementing Trump for how his administration has been helping them.
If you watch Trump, you start to like him and you can see he's authentic,,, if you go by what the media tells you about Trump, you hate him. It's just that simple.

Trudeau should actually get some advice from Trump and see how leaders show up at work. Trump works every day and takes hard questions from all media unlike Trudeau and his government subsidized journalists.
Mr. Dressup is on day 17 of this unnecessary sympathy quarantine. This tactic is not surprising after his fake security scare during the election.

It may only be history that judges him as the worst President ever. He may well bully his way to a second term as Americans tend to rally around a wartime leader even if he is a criminal. His only talent is the art of deception.
It is absolutely refreshing to watch Trump give the lying left media what they got coming....a complete smack down.
Best Trump line of March 25th.....â€you wouldn’t have a Country today if it wasn’t for me and the people standing behind me getting it doneâ€.
He is getting shit done and the lefties are pissed and head exploding....as their guy can’t even put two sentences together....sad😞Last edited by Crestliner; Mar 28, 2020, 11:15.

You could argue that U.S. President Donald Trump’s short-sighted and bungled handling of the COVID-19 pandemic began before the virus took hold in his country.
Two years earlier, Luciana Borio, the president’s biodefense preparedness advisor, warned that a flu pandemic – not a 9/11 redux – was the country’s No. 1 health security threat. As the director of medical and biodefence preparedness at the National Security Council, Borio said the country wasn’t nearly ready to confront such a lethal outbreak if it was to occur.
What was the White House’s response? It dismantled the NSC’s global health security office shortly thereafter.
Dr. Borio, and other experts such as her, were soon out of jobs. And now, 327 million Americans have been left to suffer through a pandemic without a coherent strategy for dealing with it – even though their government saw it all coming.
U.S. President Donald Trump pressed his case on Tuesday for a reopening of the U.S. economy by mid-April despite a surge in coronavirus cases, downplaying the pandemic as he did in its early stages by comparing it to the seasonal flu. Yahaira Jacquez reports. Reuters
To make matters worse – much, much worse – the country is being led by a dangerous egomaniac who has lied to and misled Americans about the gravity of the threat they’re facing almost from the beginning. Now, he is musing about grossly inflaming a problem he had a chance to mitigate. Mr. Trump is threatening to ignore the advice of virtually every major public health officer in the U.S. – including his own White House adviser on infectious diseases, Dr. Anthony Fauci – and effectively allow for a “culling of the herd†that will result in the deaths of hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of Americans.
Maybe the scenes we are about to witness will help Canadians isolate-in-place with even more vigilance.
The plague of Donald Trump
What is about to unfold will be horrifying, unquestionably. The situation in New York, which could become the new global epicentre of the disease, is dire. Governor Andrew Cuomo has pleaded with the White House to do more, and when the state was offered 400 ventilators, Mr. Cuomo exploded: “What are we going to do with 400 ventilators when we need 30,000?†The White House has since agreed to send 4,000 more – but the governor has predicted that more than 40,000 New Yorkers might need urgent care in the next few weeks.
There are scenes of turmoil and disarray everywhere in the U.S. In New Orleans, which survived Hurricane Katrina in 2005 and is now living through another disaster, doctors have reported that intensive care units are running out of basic supplies; meanwhile, residents of the city continue to ignore calls to keep a safe distance from others. This scenario is being played out across the U.S., where the coronavirus death toll on Wednesday was 791, with nearly 60,000 cases.
And now, President Chaos is promising to begin ramping down social distancing by Apr. 12, despite the pleas of doctors and nurses around the country who are begging him not to do it, as doing so would unleash scenes of pandemonium in already overwhelmed hospitals and allow the disease to spread further and faster. But it might be April 12. And just because he thinks having the churches full again on that day “would be a beautiful thing.â€
This intended course of action has already caught the attention of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s office, and to say there is worry there would a gross understatement. Canadians also have to be prepared for the fallout of Mr. Trump’s actions.

That means being prepared to tighten restrictions at the border even further. If the virus spreads because of a decision by the president to relax the rules around social distancing, it will undoubtedly mean that those U.S. workers coming into Canada now to transport goods will be at greater risk of carrying the disease.
That, in turn, will put Canadians at risk. And that is not right.
Canadians, for the most part, have gotten with the program and are staying inside. We can’t let our health be compromised by the idiocy of Mr. Trump and the pathetic, loyal lapdogs that make up his administration.
While we likely couldn’t shut the border completely, we may have to institute new, harsh rules about the manner in which those coming into the country are treated. I’m not sure precisely how; we’ve just put a mandatory quarantine in place for those arriving from international destinations, which is a smart move. Our medical professionals, as ever, would have a better idea of how this might be handled. But we have to be ready. We can’t let our efforts to plank the virus be compromised by the unconscionable folly of others.
