11. He's Come To The Realization That All He's Got Left To Campaign On For Re-election Is.....

the coronovirus. Because he knows this - he's putting on the act that he has to - to try and make him look good at handling this crisis.

That's why he's trying to keep those commercials that show his incompetence and his statements throughout this crisis off the air. He's sent a 'cease and desist' letter to the media. He's trying to act like he's really concerned about people dying from Covid-19. However, he had the Drs. (I believe) grossly overestimate the possible deaths from this crisis to 1 million to 2 million people - so he can come in at the most likely real numbers 100,000 to 200,000 - so he can claim that his 'tremendous' handling of this crisis by him saved a lot of lives. That's why he's trying to cooperate more with the Govs and the States. That's why he's parading all these corporate CEO's in front of us.

The problem is though - that his incompetence has been visible for all to see. Also - he still can't keep his mouth shut at the podium at these daily conferences to lie, take bows by patting himself on the back and lash out at reporters that try to hold his feet to the fire.

He's also been taking credit for what the Gov's and Mayor's around the country are doing to save their people. He's trying to make it look like he's responsible for all the critical decisions that they've had to make.

So - IMHO - what you are seeing is typical Trump - acting out - being what he needs to be in order to be re-elected.
