After his Covid-19 disease became known, the deficit of the president of the United States, Donald Trump, increased in favor of his Democratic rival Joe Biden. According to the Reuters / Ipsos poll released on Sunday, Biden is now 10 percentage points ahead of Trump. That’s a one or two point increase compared to the previous week’s polls. The most recent poll, which may be five-point inaccurate, was conducted Oct. 2-3, after news of Trump’s positive corona test. Consequently, 65 percent of those surveyed think that Trump probably would not have gotten sick if he had “taken the corona virus more seriously.”
According to his personal physician, Trump has not yet cleared the mountain despite the progress. He and his team are cautiously optimistic, Sean Conley said Saturday night (local time). The president has no fever and does not need extra oxygen. Trump himself said in a video message on Twitter that the “real test” was still ahead of him with his Covid 19 disease. On Sunday morning, Trump spoke on the short message service Twitter. “Thank you very much!” He wrote about a video showing trailers in front of the hospital.
Dissatisfaction with the crown’s crisis management
The poll shows growing dissatisfaction among Americans with the president’s actions against the pandemic. This proportion increased by three points to 57 percent compared to the previous week. About a third, 34 percent, of those surveyed assume that Trump is telling the truth about the corona virus, 55 percent disagree and 11 percent are unsure. The presidential and legislative elections will be held on November 3. Voting is already underway in some states: According to the University of Florida https://electproject.github.io/Early-Vote-2020G/index.html, 3.1 million US citizens have already cast their vote by mail or at the polls. .
In a four-minute video message from the hospital room, a tired-looking Trump spoke on Saturday. I’m much better, he said. However, the next few days are likely to be decisive in your fight against the corona virus. Trump was wearing a blue jacket and open white shirt with no tie in the video, the US flag visible in the background.
Contradictory statements
Previously, there were conflicting statements about Trump’s health. Initially, his doctors were “extremely” satisfied with the 74-year-old’s illness thus far. His condition is improving and Trump is already thinking about when he can return to the White House. However, minutes later, Trump’s chief of staff, Mark Meadows, told reporters that some of Trump’s values had been concerning over the past 24 hours. The president is not yet clearly on the road to recovery.
Meadows wanted to remain anonymous at this time and not be quoted by name. A few hours later, Meadows told Reuters that Trump was doing very well and that doctors were very happy with his vital signs. He did not respond to the discrepancy between his statements. According to a Trump adviser, who did not want to be named, the president was dissatisfied with Meadows’ first statement.
“Operation Magician”
Trump announced a positive corona test Friday night and was transported to Walter Reed Military Hospital for the day. Washington reported in quick succession more positive corona tests among politicians and celebrities. Among them were three Republican senators. The party’s majority leader in the House of Congress, Mitch McConnell, announced that all plenary sessions would be postponed until after October 19.
The infections occur in the hot phase of congressional and presidential election campaigns leading up to the November 3 vote. According to his own statements, Biden tested negative on Friday and another check will take place on Sunday. Biden promised to publish all the test results. The Democrat continued his election campaign over the weekend. Meanwhile, Trump’s campaign team announced “Operation Magician,” derived from its slogan “Make America Great Again.” In place of Trump, Vice President Mike Pence and his older sons Donald Jr. and Eric will take on appearances. The television match between Pence and Biden’s runner-up Kamala Harris is scheduled for Wednesday (local time; Thursday morning CEST). (Reuters)
