compliment the great job he's doing.

on edit: As Trump stands there listening to the other people on stage - you think he's not listening - but he's counting up the times the say 'president'.

He can't really try to congregate his MAGA followers, like before. So he has a captive audience, with DHHS and CDC etc. , so he puts on his tacky strong man show, for the actual, Press Conference. It's grotesque.

People are sick and dying, the economy is going to hell in a hand basket and the orange buffoon and his minions boast of their greatness. Enough of their b.s.

are in a situation similar to being on stage with Saddam Hussein. If Saddam's stagemates said the wrong thing, they got shot soon after, Trump will go after anyone that contradicts him or don't lick his ass, working to destroy their careers. I have dealt with people like him, most of them weren't very smart but one thing they had a impressive capacity to do was focus on how they wanted to harm a person's career and all of their energy went into that every minute of every workday.
