Trump Explodes on Twitter and Says His Press Conferences Have Better Ratings than the ‘Bachelor’
My God, our president is one sick, sick man.
As coronavirus cases in the country continue to raise exponentially, the forever-impeached president is on Twitter, boasting about his TV-ratings, even comparing his numbers to the finale of the hit reality show “The Bachelor.”
Trump tweeted, “Because the “Ratings” of my News Conferences etc. are so high, “Bachelor finale, Monday Night Football type numbers” according to the New York Times, the Lamestream Media is going CRAZY. “Trump is reaching too many people, we must stop him.” said one lunatic. See you at 5:00 P.M.!”

And shortly before, Trump tweeted that the ratings of the media, the “lamestream media” that is, are down.
Polls are showing tremendous disapproval of Lamestream Media coverage of the Virus crisis. The Fake News just hasn’t figured that out yet!

On Sunday morning, Dr. Anthony Fauci said that, based on what he’s seeing, the U.S. could experience between 100,000 and 200,000 deaths from Covid-19.
“We’re going to have millions of cases,” Fauci, the head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, said, noting that projections are subject to change, given that the disease’s outbreak is “such a moving target.”
The novel coronavirus, which first appeared in China in December, has infected more than 124,000 people in the U.S. and accounted for more than 2,000 deaths, according to a Johns Hopkins University database. The U.S. has reported the most confirmed cases of the virus worldwide.
And the president* is comparing his presser ratings to Monday Night Football.
Twitter was disgusted:
The media is covering depressing metrics of this crisis – deaths, illness, jobs lost, businesses and families impacted. The president is keeping a close eye on how he is being received says he's getting "Bachelor finale" type ratings. https://t.co/G66Dao9oB1

Eye on the ball there, Don, as usual. It's about you and your ratings. The fact that your own expert, Dr. Fauci, predicts hundreds of thousands of Americans will die this year, is secondary…not important compared to your ego you preening narcissistic degenerate ghoul. https://t.co/jFDg7UjpFT

No real American President would discuss his/her TV ratings while American Citizens are dying from a crisis they could have mitigated.
This is new level of unfit. https://t.co/rhO5CRoMht

Reality TV show 'president' is giddy because he thinks his tv ratings are as high as the Bachelor finale.
Trump doesn't give a damn how many Americans are infected with or die from coronavirus as long as MAGA freaks keep feeding his fragile ego. https://t.co/aUNrdZyoG0
