Have any idea what hell be talking about . Well, we know that the president has been trying to get out there every single day on the coronavirus pandemic lindsay. The white house trying to show that the president is engaged, hes in charge, and hes in a leadership role. As the polling continues to show that the public does not have confidence in the president s response to coronavirus.

Congress needs to do something to move that forward. About the only sign of progress or life at all in those

Just because we all made the deal doesnt mean you dont go back and look and say, is it still working. The president is using this for political cover. He has assembled a very unconventional game.
