President Donald Trump's response to the global pandemic that's halted daily life in the United States has been widely criticized.

Trump's refusal to heed numerous warnings, his dismissal of the virus's threat, and reluctance to use federal powers led to a nationwide shortage of medical equipment and allowed the virus to spread unimpeded for weeks, ultimately leading to millions of lost jobs and thousands of lost lives.


Trump finally acknowledges that the virus is more serious than the flu, but according to The Lincoln Project—an anti-Trump Republican Political Action Committee—it may be too late.

The PAC's Twitter account claimed that Trump's base is turning on him after his bungled virus response.

The claim is stunning because—despite every gaffe, scandal, outburst, and tantrum—Trump has maintained an ideologically unwavering group of supporters that make up about 38 percent of Americans.

A Navigator poll evaluating voter approval of Trump's early response to the virus found that a growing number of people who voted for him in 2016 think the President didn't take the threat seriously enough.

The most recent rise—from 33 percent to 40 percent—was the highest yet, and threatens to grow even more as the apex of the virus looms.

People are hoping that the Lincoln Project's speculation is true.




Others say that the Republicans who still support Trump won't be changing course.




A massive voter turnout in 2020 is a much safer bet than waiting on Trump's supporters to turn on the President.

AOC Saves The Day By Giving Bronx Middle School Group A Tour Of The Capitol Amid Shutdown

New York Democratic Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez had people cheering after she stepped in to act as tour guide after a group of middle schoolers from the Bronx pulled up to the Capitol hours after the U.S. government officially shut down.

The federal government shut down early Wednesday after the White House and Congress failed to reach an agreement on federal spending. While Senate Democrats are in the minority, they hold enough seats to filibuster and are insisting that Republicans agree to extend federal subsidies for people insured under the Affordable Care Act.

GOP Lawmaker Sparks Outrage After Calling For Dem Rep. To Be Executed For Urging People To Protest Trump

On Wednesday, September 25, an Arizona MAGA Republican state Representative publicly called for the execution of Washington Democratic Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal because she urged anyone displeased with MAGA Republican President Donald Trump's job performance to exercise their First Amendment right to free speech and to protest.

Apparently, urging citizens to make their voices heard was a step too far for Arizona state GOP Representative John Gillette, who responded to a clip edited out of a longer video by right-wing account The Patriot Oasis (TPO). A quick scan through Gillette's X account media posts will reveal his political leanings.

Liberal TikToker Mortified After Discovering That Her Therapist Is Hardcore MAGA

There used to be a time where politics did not have to come into every room or be a part of every conversation. But in a world with President Trump and MAGA, it's not as simple as being Red, Blue, or Green anymore.

Now, the sociopolitical climate is dangerous for many people and still very stress-inducing for others. It's important to surround ourselves with people who make us feel safe and seen—and unfortunately, that might mean cutting out people who have "different beliefs" than we do.
