The president's call w/ govs is something, per audio. Trump is angry and railing on the governors using words like "weak" "jerks" and "fools" to describe them.

His message is you have to "fight" and it's about the "radical left."

He's not wrong.

And don't the governors have to ask for help from the feds? I mean the President can't just send what he thinks is needed?

But mayors are more to blame.

The blue checks on Twitter are spinning this fast and furiously. They are convinced THEY GOT HIM NOW...even though every thing Trump said is what most Americans believe.

Trump positioning himself as the Law And Order President will win him voters, not lose voters.

CNN has leaked the call:

They are convinced Trump didn't know it would leaked (despite the fact that Trump said repeatedly during the Coronavirus press briefings that he knows reporters are listening to the calls with the governors and will leak them).

They really think Trump being tough with the governors is going to hurt him. Every thing Trump said on the call the majority of Americans agree with.

These are his "controversial" comments:

quote:

“What happened in the state of Minnesota … They took over the police department. The police were running down the street with sirens blazing, the rest of them running, it was on-camera … I have never seen anything like it and the whole world was laughing … All of a sudden and I said you got to use the National Guard, and they didn’t at first and then they did. I don’t know what it was, it was the third night, one night, those guys walked through that stuff like it was butter. They walked right through and they haven’t had any problems. They know they’re not going to go there, they’re going to go to some other place.

Once you go down and you dominate it, you take the worst place and you made it— they didn’t even cover it last night … because you dominated, you dominated. What happens in New York, I have to tell you, I lived in Manhattan, what’s going on in Manhattan? I have no idea. New York’s finest … I don’t know what’s happening in Manhattan but it’s terrible. Because it’s Manhattan it gets a lot of press. So they really spend a lot of time on it. But New York is gonna have to have to toughen up and we’ll send you National Guard if you want. You have the largest police force in the country, 40,000 people are on the staff. What’s going on in New York is terrible, it’s terrible. All the places. What happened last night in Los Angeles … is terrible. Those dominations, you have to dominate them.”
