The polls are notoriously corporate media-based and right wing. Trump reminds me of Caligula the Roman Emperor who threw bread to the public in the coliseum to shore up his waning popularity.
When it's all said and done, Donald Trump emerges from this with an unbelievably deplorable legacy. Historians who look back on this time period will see that Donald Trump's actions directly caused the deaths of tens of thousands of Americans who would still be alive had Trump admitted the seriousness of the pandemic from the beginning and taken appropriate action. Instead he pretended the pandemic was fake, nothing but a conspiracy by his opponents to get him out of power. The time lost was crucial. Had he acted appropriately from the beginning, doctors and hospitals would have been much better equipped to deal with the pandemic, and more could have been done sooner to limit the spread of the deadly virus.
The huge number of Republican office holders who kept protecting him will also have a very horrible legacy. Had they acted to remove him from office for reasons not related to the pandemic but highly appropriate reasons, they could have saved the lives of these same tens of thousands of Americans who are going to perish because of Donald Trump's policies.
