Trump gives himself 10 out of 10 on coronavirus response

President Trump told reporters Monday that he would rate his administration’s response to the coronavirus a 10 on a scale of 1 to 10.

“I’d rate it a 10,” Trump said at a White House press briefing Monday when asked by a reporter how he would rate his response to the pandemic.

“I think we’ve done a great job,
and it started with the fact that we kept a very highly infected country,
despite all of the, even the professionals saying it’s too early to do that,” Trump said.

Trump defended his administration’s efforts during Monday’s briefing, saying he took over an “obsolete system” from his predecessor and that the U.S. is now testing “tremendous amounts of people.”

I thought they were saying this was nothing more than the common cold and it was a made up disease by the Democrats to make Trump look bad. At least that's what Rush Limbaugh was spouting just a few weeks ago.

I've known people whose brains work much faster than their mouths. His situation is just the opposite.
