The presidential candidate of the Republican Party of the United States, Donald Trump, has harshly criticized the most prestigious epidemiology expert in the United States and similar “idiots”, saying that the people are fed up with the restrictions while the public apparently faces, rather, against him, precisely because of this behavior.
US President Donald Trump, a Republican presidential candidate, launched a fierce attack on epidemic expert Anthony Fauci, the country’s best known and most respected public health expert, at a recent presidential campaign meeting, according to the Financial Times. “People are tired of listening to Fauci and the other idiots,” Trump said. “Every day that he appears on television, he always drops a bomb, but the biggest bomb would be if he was shot … Fauci is a disaster.” The president fell to the specialist after Fauci told CBS television that he was not surprised that Trump was infected, seeing how much corona virus rules were ignored in the White House.
In stark contrast to the president’s outburst, the amount of hospital admissions in dozens of US states, especially the Midwest, has set a record these days. In the second week of October, this indicator jumped to 37-38 thousand, which has been unprecedented since the end of August. However, Trump continued the attack on Fauci, 79, including on Twitter. It also did not dissuade him from being protected by the secret service after receiving death threats because of his position on the epidemic.
Protection and discussion of flocks
In recent months, the president has essentially set aside the government’s epidemic action group established in the spring, instead of listening to Scott Atlas, a neuroradiologist with little experience treating epidemics but with his strategy of herd protection to achieve natural protection for the population as soon as possible. against a virus that requires two-thirds of the population to be infected, ”Trump won their trust.
Meanwhile, he and his opponent, Democratic Party presidential candidate Joe Biden, are preparing for their last televised debate on Oct. 22, which may offer the president one last chance to turn to polls that are unfavorable to him. The Trump campaign complained that the debate covered a number of topics, not just foreign policy, which was in the original plans, even before the battle of the second word was lost due to the president’s illness. Also, the president’s team doesn’t like candidates turning off their opponent’s microphone during their two-minute stand-alone resolution so they can’t talk to each other. Still, Trump will be there for the debate.
Three percentage points in a week
Meanwhile, the president’s strategy on the epidemic appears to fail. Two weeks before the Nov. 3 vote, a Yahoo News / YouGov poll found that nationally, Biden was 11 percentage points more popular than Trump (51 to 40 percent). The news portal and the voting institute have not measured such a difference between them so far, in addition, the advantage of the Democratic candidate has increased by three percentage points compared to the poll a week earlier.
The president’s outburst against those calling for cracking down on the epidemic seems insane because nearly two-thirds (63 percent) of registered voters see the number of infections increasing, up from just 57 per week and 48 percent ago. two weeks. Sixty percent say the epidemic worsened in the fall and 15 percent said it got better. 52 percent of registered voters say Biden is doing better in relation to the epidemic, while 33 percent say Trump is doing better, a proportion of 45 to 38 percent a week ago.
More pests
Trump is also worse off than four years ago. Voters who claim to be independent support Bident 39-37 more, compared to Hillary Clinton in 2016, who gained four percentage points in this group of voters. Suburban voters are predicted to beat him 50 to 36 percent, even though he won four percentage points in that round four years ago. Although he leads by seven and three percentage points among white and elderly voters, he won by 20 and seven points in 2016. Nine percent of those who voted for Trump four years ago say they will put an X next to Biden’s name this year, while only four percent of Clinton supporters will vote for Trump.
Finally, the bad news for the president is that his time seems to be running out. Only five percent of those expected to vote said in the poll that they have not yet decided who to vote for, and only three percent think they can change their preference so far. An even bigger problem, Trump may note, is that only one percent of those on his opponent’s side believe they can vote for the president, while among Trump voters, seven percent are those who could. end up voting for Biden after all.
