Upside of crisis: People are watching Trump speak, unfiltered, every single day. This is one of the few times he's been able to reach people this directly, without media filtering. There is still media filtering, but people are home and watching the conferences directly.

ApocolipticPePe 35 points ago +36 / -1

I actually thought about this as well - lots of NPC’s that have been checked out are going to be seeing him speak for the first time

SameCookiePseudonym 29 points ago +31 / -2

Maybe that's why we saw a +12% swing in approval of his handling of the crisis, once press conferences started.

He's taken over the airwaves with this thing. It's the biggest show every day.

Yep. Trump learned within a day that these daily press conferences will have him front and centre everyday and make him the Central focal point for the average person.

Great instincts as usual by the man.

This is so ridiculous to me, pure kabuki! A hypothetical and staged fantasy of authority, that has no bearing, meaning, or impact.

Lefties are freaking out about it too- calling to boycott the briefings on MSM because Trump has his shit together and is convincing the masses he is the only man for the job.

Such low life scum. Just when I think they can’t get any worse, they cheer for chaos and death for political clout.

It is beyond evil.

Also, another big take away is that people will listen to him speak, and then see how unfairly the media reports on what he says. How they twist what he says, or takes things out of context, or if he makes an off the cuff remark that was clearly a joke, and they say that he was 100% serious. Things like that will help the regular American people understand why he calls them the fake news.

Do you realize the stress these people are under? Just sorting, analyzing and communicating what they are told to be true is unbelievably complex.

Standardized testing is an abomination. Good riddance.

5
HeavenlyTrumpets 5 points ago +6 / -1

Depends on how it's done. Standardized tests to have an objective idea of capabilities are one thing. Leftists tend to oppose these because they highlight differences that they want to pretend don't exist. Standardized testing is at its worst when it's a test of regurgitation, and not capability... which is what a lot of standardized testing has become.

In a way education is about regurgitating, so this is dumb imo. A doctor can't think his way out of not remembering low blood sugar needs insulin (not a doctor don't crucify me point stands).

The fear mongering on spez's propaganda website is getting creepy. How hard is it to understand we are just trying to stop a huge influx in hospitalizations in a very short period of time. Trump is talking about hope and uniting us during this short time of partially shutting down the nation. All while having short, medium, and long term implements in place to help the economy and individual Americans.

This nation is going to be fine. We will come through stronger. Next month will be hard. But we are Americans. Make sure your family has enough food on the plate first. Any extra give to your neighbor if they do not. It is pretty easy to do. Stop the Fear and work on the solution.

On January 19, 2020, a 35-year-old man presented to an urgent care clinic in Snohomish County, Washington, with a 4-day history of cough and subjective fever. On checking into the clinic, the patient put on a mask in the waiting room. After waiting approximately 20 minutes, he was taken into an examination room and underwent evaluation by a provider. He disclosed that he had returned to Washington State on January 15 after traveling to visit family in Wuhan, China.
