Has anyone had a MAGAt defend Trump in the last couple of weeks?

I am in the heart of red states and none of them have Defended trump but in the last week all of them have admitted to being very concerned, and not able to find a way to blame democrats has them really confused. Most of them seem to agree that this isn’t getting better and the news coming out of Washington is misleading.

I understand that Trump doesn't read....

But has no one in his administration thought about making him watch an episode or two of “The West Wing” or make him watch the movie “Lincoln”?
One should not be eligible for President without knowing the basics of the purpose of Government and it’s responsibility to “We The People”

I actually believe that this pandemic is just a fire drill....

...in comparison to what our children will live through from the repercussions of global warming.

Trump organization requests financial relief

Keep an eye on this one because each of his golf clubs are funded by membership dues plus all hotels and resorts in the United States will fit into the SBA Loan assistance program like the rest of America’s small business will have to deal with. All businesses off shore, well he needs to see Putin about aid for those.

Trump: "the free market is a wonderful thing"

He said that immediately after telling the press that he would be helping the oil and gas industry.
He is promising them a bailout and they pay no taxes and they benefit from the Middle East wars while it cost taxpayers to invade the countries that they want oil from.
What the fuck happened to all of that $5 a gallon cash that they made from 2003 to 2008?
A Free Market economy is a fairytale

Russian plane heads to US with supplies for COVID-19 fight

I don’t understand what the fudge is going on here.
Each day at 5:00 we are making Millions of test kits each week, hundreds thousands of mask each week, ventilators not made by ventilator companies but by by auto makers, 15 thousand each day. Each state has more than enough and we are shipping supplies all over the world!
Yet the States are pleading for supplies, hospitals beds, and refrigerators for bodies. States are bidding with the Federal government for procurement of supplies and no ne has enough.
I understand that Trump can’t be believed, but half of the population believes each word that he says. He must be called out on each lie the moment that he tells it. Now the professionals are adjusting their message for “best case scenario” instead of the reality. That doesn’t help anyone.
This isn't about votes anymore, it is about lives.

Think of Trump as a bus driver and He wrecks the bus with passengers

And say 30% of the passengers are injured and 4% are killed in the crash. Trumps response is “ just think what kind of damaged would have been done if I had not put on the brakes, it would have been a blood bath”
How is that scenario different than his press conference statements today?

How painful it must be for Trump to complement ....

Gavin Newsom, or Jay Inslee in today’s press conference . Sure his purpose to elevating them is to make Andy Cuomo look bad and all of it could be reversed tomorrow but we now have lie #22,853 on tape to use for a highlight reel footage.
