trying to make up for what the federal government is supposed to be doing but isn't. Our governor, Tim Walz, is as on top of the situation as he can be. I've been really impressed with his efforts. He's been trying to get supplies, even by begging Mike Dense personally (to no avail, unfortunately). http://www.startribune.com/confirmed-number-of-minnesota-coronavirus-cases-rises-to-77-while-testing-to-decline/568897362/ If it weren't for some very competent governors like Walz and Inslee we'd be in even deeper shit than we're already in.

He has probably been told the virus has spread throughout America and things are going to get really bad. So he is telling his voters the Governors are in charge, then when things go bad he will simply blame them.

the more people he found to blame. He is only making things worse. It would be better if he just let others do these press conferences.

He thrives on those rallies and he has to have his fix. Meanwhile, he's not golfing either, so the atmosphere in the White House has to be a nightmare, like living with an abusive spouse or father. Just imagine what kinds of tantrums he is throwing off camera.

It must be frustrating for him to have to be careful about what he says, unlike at his rallies. Even being careful, he is saying off-the-wall crap and butchering the English language.
