Only two thirds?
Courtesy of ABC News:
Nearly two-thirds of Americans disapprove of President Donald Trump’s handling of three major challenges facing the country — the coronavirus pandemic, nationwide unrest over racial inequality and relations with Russia — in a new ABC News/Ipsos poll, a sign of the obstacles that his reelection bid faces just three months before Election Day.
With the White House confronting the most significant reckoning on race since the civil rights movement of the 1960s, the worst public health crisis in a century, and a hostile Russia reminiscent of the Cold War, Americans have little confidence in the job Trump is doing in all three of these major areas.
Trump closes out the month of July the way it began, with his approval on the coronavirus in the low 30s. His approval sits at 34%, right about where it was earlier this month (33%) when it reached a new low since ABC News/Ipsos began surveying on the virus in March.
An election that comes down to be a referendum on Trump’s handling of the coronavirus, his response to the race movement or his dealings with foreign adversaries spells trouble for the incumbent president. With all three crises, Trump only consistently has the support of his own party and his base.
Donald Trump’s failure to win reelection seems like a foregone conclusion at this point.
However, I would caution people to remember that his election in the first place seemed equally unlikely, and yet we know how that played out.
There is no room for complacency in politics, and especially not at a time like this when every vote is needed to fix a terrible wrong and to get this country back on track.
That’s right. Blame it on COVID, How dumb do they think we are?
The vote to renominate President Donald Trump is set to be conducted in private later this month, without members of the press present, a spokeswoman for the Republican National Convention, citing the coronavirus

Nominating conventions are traditionally meant to be media bonanzas, as political parties seek to leverage the attention the events draw to spread their message to as many voters as possible. If the GOP decision stands, it will mark the first party nominating convention in modern history to be closed to reporters.
He doesn’t want it to get out that they are going to try and nominate a sane person to run.
One Person One Vote. How it should be, yet the blatant voter suppression continues. If they’re on the side of right, what the heck are they so scared of?
Toss COVID and BLM aside, and think. Has this MAGA administration bettered or worsened you in the last four years? Myself, it’s a no-brainer.
Those concerned about our standing on the global front, think about that as well. Proud?
Electing someone in error is one thing. Re-electing is a whole ‘nother ball game.
Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.
“Electing someone in error is one thing. Re-electing is a whole ‘nother ball game.”
I totally agree with you Anonymous 6:40 am. If the US re-elects the dictator-wannabe-white-supremacist-with-Putin-issues ignoramus who thinks he knows everything about everything, then the US will have a hard time climbing out of the hole that Trump is currently digging.

the Trump Administration repeatedly delayed an Obama-era order from the health-technology company Philips for 10,000 ventilators, wasting half-a-Billion dollars for machines that won’t even arrive until September 2022.
When Peter Navarro — Assistant to the President, Director of Trade and Manufacturing Policy — and other senior officials in the White House negotiated a new contract with Philips, they ended up scrapping the Obama-era terms and agreed to pay almost five-times the price set under those terms.
While Philips had sold ventilators to other purchasers for prices as low as $9,327 per unit, the Trump Administration ended up paying $50,000 per unit.
the U.S. has surpassed over 156,000 coronavirus deaths.

Trump has trailed in every public poll in Pennsylvania since June.

The United States just suffered its worst economic quarter in nearly 75 years… the president has remained steadfast in his belief that the virus will soon abate and continues to portray the economic slowdown as a blip. During remarks at the White House on Thursday, he said that a comeback “won’t take very long, based on everything that we’re seeing.”
““A strategy for the economy?” asked Sen. Todd Young, R-Ind. “That’s not how economies work. He’s not the Wizard of Oz — you can print this, I hope you do — he’s not the Wizard of Oz, who controls the economy. Growth is created by innovators and entrepreneurs and rank-and-file workers, based on supply and demand.”
“Everything that we’re seeing.”
“Many people are saying,”
NAME ONE.
