Will Trump's attacks on 2 female reporters make a difference in November?

..Just asking, I have no idea. Are women offended by these attacks? Will that increase votes against Trump?
Could that make a difference in November?

An attack on ..".Biden's honesty." is somewhat ...."dishonest" by who? You got to be kidding?

....Someone as ..."honest" ....as Donald Trump??

Two exact paragraphs..."Badge of Honor" statement by Trump: Politico 5/19/20

“When we have a lot of cases, I don’t look at that as a bad thing,” the president said. “I look at that in a certain respect as being a good thing, because it means our testing is much better. So, if we were testing a million people instead of 14 million people, it would have far few cases, right?”

“So, I view it as a badge of honor. Really, it’s a badge of honor,” he concluded. “It’s a great tribute to the testing and all of the work that a lot of professionals have done.”

Trump, the idiot, will not be reelected. Here is why in 3 sentences.

1. Too many people have died and will die by November.
2. Trump's lies are clear to everyone and anyone who dislikes a liar and bully.
3. Trump's stupid behavior is also clear to anyone & everyone who cares about the fact that
we have a stupid, insensitive, and totally ineffective president.

Yes, Trump might get 25 percent,33 percent or 40% of vote. Yes, he has a "cult." Nevertheless, Trump will not get reelected because of 1,2, & 3.

...Who is the fool, and who is the hero?

Barack Obama came up with the ..Affordable Care Act..
ACA gave health care to those who could not afford it, and ACA saved thousands of lives & millions of dollars for families who could not afford the costs of life saving medical care. Some people would not seek medical care because of the cost...With ACA many got help they would not even have sought before..

Donald Trump said the virus would not be a "big deal" might infect 5 or 6 and be gone in two weeks.
....Corona Virus has killed 90,000 lives at last count in the U.S.A....

So....I ask again,... Who is the incompetent fool? And who is the hero?

Donald Trump has fostered killing in 2 ways..not one.

1. Yes he did nothing about the virus and said it would "go away & infect a few people"

2. Not wearing a mask in public appearances, "emboldens others to not wear a mask.." Others think
"if Trump doesn't need to wear one, why should I?"
... (Trump is obviously specially protected in other ways, it seems.) but his "leadership in not wearing a mask" is very stupid. If he issued warnings and said, Yes, I will always wear one, it might keep some people from getting the virus.(some people).and prevent some deaths and some spread of this killing disease. It is obvious, Trump does not care. about the consequences of these actions.
... I also suspect he has been told about this exact idea,(above paragraph) and just refuses to do anything about it. He doesn't care at all.

Trump is a "bully." That is easy to see. Most people do not like "bullies."

...Some people do like them, but most don't. We don't like them because they bullied us and they are mean and vicious. Trump has never stopped this behavior, and he never will.
...After the 3rd or 4th time you deal with a bully, you stay away from him or her and avoid that person if possible. And also, you begin to dislike that person and even much stronger, "hate that person."
... Trump has been on TV, in all the media, and in countless places for a long time. "He thinks he can get away with it." He won't, not this time.. Come election day in November, Trump will lose and that is one of the main reasons. Trump is a bully and most of us don't like bullies. After 3 years, 5 months, Trump showed everyone exactly who he is: A mean and vicious bully who cares only about himself and no one else..
