Always ‘damning with faint praise’.......
.....can’t help themselves

‘ if only the President would do this....or that’

His composure was outstanding considering he just flew 16 thousand miles round trip in two days!
Give the guy absolute praise without resorting to your endless ‘if onlys’

This President amazes and astounds me every day!
His stamina has to be God given......there is no other explanation!

He IS the adult in the room!

Good points. In a sense, the rage-Tweet has served its purpose - which was to call attention and not have to pass things through the press filter - but maybe people are looking for more substance now, not only because of the virus but because of the threat of socialism and the resulting disruption and collapse. They’re nervous.

I don’t think it’s so much the anger that upsets the soccer moms as the feeling that perhaps he’s not really in control. I think he had a lot of trouble asserting control because the Dems launched their coup right away, and because half of his staff seemed to be in collusion with them. But his survival of these attacks and his growing knowledge of the how politics work have really solidified him....and reduced his enemies to childish rage (stunts such as Nancy’s ripping up the SOTU speech). Being calm and mature reveals how nutty they have been and still are.

Bernie, btw, is fond of giving Hitleresque , swollen-veins, red-faced rage-speeches. The contrast with a serious but witty and good natured, adult Trump is huge. That doesn’t mean Trump has to lose his personal style, because even the soccer moms appreciate somebody who says what he means and means what he says, and that’s the feeling you get about Trump.

That said, I loved the way he completely undercut Schumer’s grandstanding on the funding by cheerfully thanking them for it!

DB, it looks as though President Trump has the ability to:

1. Look very somber and erudite and competent and hold “the room” with all the charm and command that he naturally has.

AND

2. Hold an entertaining and informative rally to the delight of thousands of people.

I say:

LEAVE HIM ALONE. HE KNOWS WHAT HE IS DOING. STOP EXAMINING EVERY APPEARANCE AND WORD THAT IS UTTERED.

We are into three years of President Trump.

BORROW THE MARINE PHRASE AND ADJUST.

Once again we can honestly say the rats are just that, rats. If this were to happened while Obama was president Im sure the survival rate of a real pandemic in the US because of their ineptness and the despicable evil thoughts of control would be selective on who would get the best treatment for survival and who would be left to die, scum all of them!

That and this;
Presidential Message on Ash Wednesday, 2020
whitehouse.gov ^ | February 26, 2020 | President Donald Trump

Posted on 2/26/2020, 2:02:11 PM by ransomnote

Melania and I wish everyone observing Ash Wednesday a peaceful and prayerful day.

For Catholics and many other Christians, Ash Wednesday marks the beginning of the Lenten season that concludes with the joyful celebration of Easter Sunday. Today, millions of Christians will be marked on their foreheads with the sign of the cross. The imposition of ashes is an invitation to spend time during Lent fasting, praying, and engaging in acts of charity. This powerful and sacred tradition reminds us of our shared mortality, Christ’s saving love, and the need to repent and accept the Gospel more fully.

We join in prayer with everyone observing this holy day and wish you a prayerful Lenten journey. May you grow closer to God in your faith during this blessed season.

I liked that the camera stayed pointed toward President Trump and the front of the room, rather than toward the crooks in the media. When they are on camera they like to grandstand and debate, rather than ask questions.

For those of us who have been calling for such a press conference or speech by the president to get ahead of the virus issue, I for one am much relieved about the tone and substance of his presser.

In every endeavor there is always room for improvement but to quibble now is not to advance the cause of the reelection of President Trump.

GREAT Press conference. So good I noticed CBS This morning barely covered it, instead hyping up more virus fears regarding the person in California. An how about Doomberg and his end of the world commercials, sheesh, these people are pathetic.

One of the 2 or 3 most “Presidential” of all his addresses to nation and press......he made fools of them all.......

And was more Reagan-esque than Reagan.........

Add a few more million popular votes as a result, maybe a state or two.........

I agree with David’s premise that it was a great press conference - I don’t agree with the barrage of criticisms that follow.
