President Donald Trump Tweetstorm – The Sunday Edition

President Donald Trump will undoubtedly have more to say later on today at his press conference on coronavirus. For now, his tweets promoted optimism on a potential breakthrough on personal protective equipment (PPE), the hard work White House staffers are putting in, and the Pope’s prayers on the pandemic.

Of course, there were also a few jabs thrown at Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer and former acting FBI DIrector Andrew McCabe, two prior combatants in the Trump universe.

We’ll update as more communications roll in. The tweetstorm so far:

So proud of the @USACEHQ, @FEMA, and the Federal Government for the 2,900 bed hospital they built in 4 days (way ahead of schedule) in the Javits Center for NY. We are now moving the teams to join others so they can continue to build more hospitals/beds. Keep up the GREAT WORK!

I am a great friend and admirer of the Queen & the United Kingdom. It was reported that Harry and Meghan, who left the Kingdom, would reside permanently in Canada. Now they have left Canada for the U.S. however, the U.S. will not pay for their security protection. They must pay!

“President Trump is a ratings hit. Since reviving the daily White House briefing Mr. Trump and his coronavirus updates have attracted an average audience of 8.5 million on cable news, roughly the viewership of the season finale of ‘The Bachelor.’ Numbers are continuing to rise…

…alone attracted 6.2 million viewers for the president’s briefing — an astounding number for a 6 p.m. cable broadcast, more akin to the viewership for a popular prime-time sitcom…

Because the “Ratings” of my News Conferences etc. are so high, “Bachelor finale, Monday Night Football type numbers” according to the @nytimes, 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.!

Polls are showing tremendous disapproval of Lamestream Media coverage of the Virus crisis. The Fake News just hasn’t figured that out yet!

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) March 29, 2020

The Lamestream Media wants us to fail. That will NEVER happen!

Hope the FDA can approve Mask Sterilization equipment ASAP. As per Governor @MikeDeWine, there is a company in Ohio, @Battelle, which has equipment that can sterilize masks quickly.

“With the Tax Cuts and new Trade Deals, we were set for a tremendous growth rate this year…. and then the Virus came along.” @larry_kudlow @MariaBartiromo We were breaking all records, especially on employment. It will all come roaring back again, and fast!

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) March 29, 2020

Highly recommended by Governor @MikeDeWine of Ohio. @FDA must move quickly! https://t.co/pLpI4CSs9H

#PopeFrancis delivers an extraordinary blessing “To the City and to the World” to pray for an end to the Covid-19 #coronavirus pandemic, and reflects on Jesus’ words to His disciples: “Why are you afraid? Have you no faith?”https://t.co/ORhCXN47BU

The firing of Andrew McCabe is a rare example of someone being held accountable in Washington. I hope the IG issues his report soon. https://t.co/3GaBUVNcL1

Albom's softball interview with Whitmer this past Friday (AM 760 WJR) was horrific. Wasn't sure what was more disturbing: Whitmer not being quite sure whether she is in charge of the state's response or Albom not knowing the difference between state and federal government.

Will be doing a press conference today at 5:00 P.M. The White House. People are working harder than I have ever seen people work. It is a beautiful thing to watch!
