I don’t need to be comforted by any President, but if that’s what people were looking for, they got none of it. And by seeming, I don’t know, indifferent? to the whole issue, he makes it easy for the left to attack him.

I understand you comments. Trump has approached life from a point of exuding confidence. He will not agonize over every word and nuance in the fashion of seasoned politicians. And I would be lying if I denied that I often have to cringe at some of his comments and his approach.

In times past, a confident manner served FDR well in dark times; but he did not have a pack of opposition party jackals at his heels every minute of everyday. There is, however, for me a saving grace with respect to Trump--he will work his a$$ off to attack this latest crisis and won't be wasting time pouring oily platitudes over emotional members of the public who will always be suckers for crap like "I feel your pain."
