More Now Disapprove of Trump on Pandemic

[RandySF]

A Navigator tracking poll finds President Trump is now under water on his handling of the coronavirus outbreak — this week, Trump saw a 13-point swing in his net approval on his handling of the pandemic, from 52% to 42% (+10) to 47% to 50% (-3).

Key finding: “Trump is wildly out of step with Americans with his new push to relax social distancing. Only 5% say we should roll back precautions, even at the expense of economic losses, while 74% say we should wait however long it takes for public health experts to say it’s safe, including 70% of Republicans.”

1. People are desperate and are grasping for anything positive.

Facts will never be on the side of Donald Trump.

4. seems more likely they turn on us

i think if Trump sees them falling away, or someone he trusts tells him they are, he gives them a lot more of what they want: open season on minorities and liberals.

5. this is realiy setting in........

When that gallop 60% poll was taken the USA was only around 10k cases and there was talk of checks going out. this seemed like not a big deal...... now people are starting to realize we are only at the beginning of the beginning of this crisis

6. That's how I saw it. A lot of people were under the delusion

that it was under control here. With 118k cases and nearly 2,000 dead, that delusion is shattering.
