Seventy-one percent of Americans — and 56 percent of Republicans — say they are more concerned about lifting the coronavirus restrictions too quickly than lifting them too slowly. Only 29 percent of Americans say the opposite. https://t.co/HnF4XMNplj — PolitiTweet.org

Do the public health experts believe this order will help slow COVID-19? Do economists advise it will markedly affect American jobs? If not, you can assume it’s just a good way to pander to the base in agonizing times. — PolitiTweet.org

The virus within the virus. Check out who’s behind the anti-social distancing protests that @realDonaldTrump endorsed-even though their demands defy his own administration’s social distancing guidance! https://t.co/clZqdURlQE — PolitiTweet.org

What was until March 15 a trivial matter, not worse than the flu, that would go away “like a miracle” is now “the plague.” — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

Extraordinary how frequently @realDonaldTrump has a kind word for autocrats like Kim, XI and Putin but scorn for democratic allies. But what does this face to do with the virus? — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

Also trying to member if @realDonaldTrump raised his voice when @BarackObama was rebuffed annually by a Republican Congress in his requests for infrastructure investment from 2010-2016? — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

I wonder if @realDonaldTrump sees any strategic value at all to U.S. troops around the world. He speaks of it as if the host countries receive all the benefits and the U.S. nothing but the cost. Also, what does this gave to do with the virus? — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

Are these big restaurant chains that have received large chunks of the federal relief package keeping staff on? This is why we need oversight. https://t.co/h4fb5m24sS — PolitiTweet.org

I agree w/@CharlesMBlow. These “briefings” have become a forum for campaign salvos, not public information. If anything, they have become a platform for disinformation. Even @POTUS seemed to concede the other day that they’re substitutes for his rallies. https://t.co/I5Mgyn1HCk — PolitiTweet.org

I served in WH during the devastating oil spill in the Gulf. It was a consequence, in no small part, of inadequate oversight and regs. Tragically, as discussed here, the steps that were taken after to prevent another catastrophe are being unraveled. https://t.co/XwzvmDEbxg — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

R and D governors agree, the feds haven’t done enough to ensure the COVID-19 testing needed to reopen. Yet every evening, the @POTUS misleads the country, insisting everything is fine when it’s not. People deserve the truth, not self-serving hucksterism. https://t.co/PuihGbTHBg — PolitiTweet.org

.@SteveKerr won 3 titles as a player w/the @chicagobulls teams featured last night in @ESPN doc, The Last Dance. On throwback #AxeFiles, Kerr, now coach of the @warriors, talked about playing alongside @Jumpman23, Greatest of All Time.

One postscript to today’s presser: It would be hard to listen to the @POTUS’s words without concluding that he is going to pardon Stone, Manafort and Flynn, probably as soon as the election is over. — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

Pretty tough smack down by @JoeBiden campaign of @realDonaldTrump on his kid gloves handling of China around the virus, hanging Trump with his own words and tweets. https://t.co/Cv3r9pQg4d — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

There is a palpable difference between the way @realDonaldTrump treats women and men in the peess corps. He is nasty to both; patronizing to women. — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

Pretty extraordinary number. 72 percent believe election should be held by mail. — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

And to @JDiamond1 of @CNN for challenging the @POTUS about his past statements of praise for Xi and China for their handling of COVID-19. @realDonaldTrump believes thru sheer force of will he can erase his past statements. His problem: Video. — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

Since @POTUS associated himself with a Abraham Lincoln, I was reminded of this observation of Lincoln’s: “It is true that you may fool all of the people some of the time; you can even fool some of the people all of the time; but you can't fool all of the people all of the time.” — PolitiTweet.org

Hats off to @weijia Jiang of @CBSNews for asking a tough, necessary question. — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

I guess he thinks by shouting down reporters he can erase the litany of times when he assured us that the virus was a non-event, a hoax, fewer than 15 cases, it would just go away. Now he insists that he knew it was a pandemic all along. — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

Keep your voice down?!? — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

Note to @POTUS: People sometimes drive between counties. — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

New drinking game; If you took a swill every time the @VP says “the president,” you’d be plastered by the end of every presentation. — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

Oh, wait. He was just riffing. He is back to talking about what a fantastic job he’s done. — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

Just tuned in and they are replaying an old briefing where the @POTUS is talking about China and trade and the wTO and NAFTA, not the virus that has claimed 41,379 American lives. Must be a mistake. — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

Hope nobody here gets any ideas. https://t.co/amMlaeneM4 — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

Part of why MI @GovWhitmer has become a target for @POTUS and @GOP in the crisis is that they see her as a potential @JoeBiden #2. On the #AxeFiles this week, I spoke with her about her life, career & the VP talk. Pod here👉 https://t.co/oZMsoGhyTk https://t.co/viNsrzFUdj — PolitiTweet.org
