This is leadership?
The latest contradiction w/ the head of the CDC is just the most recent example. But from the start, he has knowingly deceived the public every step of the way: about how serious the threat was, about the #'s, about the timeline for a vaccine, about various treatments, about masks, disinfectant, shutdowns, and every other aspect of this pandemic.
And polls are now showing the results: Americans describe themselves as confused, and not knowing who or what to believe.
People don't want to hear it, and I won't use the "H" word - but this is straight out of every dictator wannabe's playbook. Confusing the public + discrediting all other sources of information = increased reliance on you.

If you have a problem with the way any of this happened, talk with your Governors. They made all the decisions. If that truth gives you a headache, oh fucking well..
Right now we got fifty States with fifty different strategies on how to contain a virus that doesn't know geographical borders, and at the same time, a President, not stepping up, rather, as you say sowing confusion, and also doing his best to undercut many of those States who are addressing COVID
The worst part is that he is doing it all for his own political ends, just what the Founding Fathers envisioned when they authored Article II of the Constitution

Trump wasn't anywhere, it is a national crisis, a generational crisis, one killing close to a thousand Americans a day, and Donny never stepped up to the plate, as I noted, we got fifty strategies dealing with a national crisis while baby Huey is out blaming others and purposely confusing people, all for his own personal political gain, except, it ain't working, Americans are seeing the charade
Alexander Hamilton nailed it:
"When a man unprincipled in private life[,] desperate in his fortune, bold in his temper . . . despotic in his ordinary demeanour — known to have scoffed in private at the principles of liberty — when such a man is seen to mount the hobby horse of popularity — to join in the cry of danger to liberty — to take every opportunity of embarrassing the General Government & bringing it under suspicion — to flatter and fall in with all the non sense of the zealots of the day — It may justly be suspected that his object is to throw things into confusion that he may 'ride the storm and direct the whirlwind.'"
