[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Trump in an early morning tweet on Sunday accused the "Fake News Media" of attempting to "make us look bad" on the administration's coronavirus response.

The president called the White House's plan to combat the growing outbreak in the U.S. "perfectly coordinated and fine tuned."

"We moved VERY early to close borders to certain areas, which was a Godsend," he tweeted. "V.P. is doing a great job. The Fake News Media is doing everything possible to make us look bad. Sad!"

2. I can think of several reasons for any given Trump tweet.

They have all been rehashed so many times they do not deserve further comment. It comes to this why do female mosquitoes suck blood?

3. When it comes to 'looking bad' ...

... Trump & Co don't require any assistance from the media, 'fake' or otherwise.

But Trump seems to think they're shining too much light already.
