Poll: Trump's coronavirus bounce fizzles

The survey, conducted immediately before President Donald Trump announced a 30-day extension of his physical and social distancing guidelines “to slow the spread” of Covid-19, shows 47 percent of voters feel the administration isn’t doing enough in response to the outbreak, greater than the 40 percent who feel the administration is doing the right amount.

Here's a prediction from ZH:

china-deliberately-underreporting-covid-19-infection


Leaked US Intel Report Accuses China Of Deliberately Lying About Coronavirus Figures

Update (1200ET): Vice President Mike Pence just said during an appearance on CNN that it "would have been better" if China was more forthcoming with the US during the early days of the outbreak, and basically blamed the Chinese for the White House's slow response.

And there you have it, the purpose for this particular leak, is to begin laying out the administration's defense when accosted by critics who accuse Trump of not doing enough early on to combat the virus.

Below are the names of those behind zero hedge. Don't miss what I've highlighted in red below. This folks is why comrade troll SIG loves to quote zero hedge.




In addition, Lokey said he faced constant pressure to frame stories in-line with a particular world-view, which he described as “Russia=good. Obama=idiot. Bashar al-Assad=benevolent leader. John Kerry=dunce. Vladmir Putin=greatest leader in the history of statecraft.”



All of this matches SIG's playbook here and Putin's globally; exactly.


The men behind zero hedge

Colin Lokey, a 32-year-old former Seeking Alpha director

Daniel Ivandjiiski, a 37-year-old Bulgarian-born former hedge fund employee who was barred for insider trading in 2008

Tim Backshall, a 45-year-old credit derivatives strategist
Despite its populist tone, Lokey told Bloomberg he recently left Zero Hedge because he didn’t see eye-to-eye with the others when it came to editorial vision.

“Zero Hedge ceased to serve that public service years ago,” Lokey said. “They care what generates page views. Clicks. Money.”

In addition, Lokey said he faced constant pressure to frame stories in-line with a particular world-view, which he described as “Russia=good. Obama=idiot. Bashar al-Assad=benevolent leader. John Kerry=dunce. Vladmir Putin=greatest leader in the history of statecraft.”

Lokey claims Zero Hedge’s focus on traffic and revenue is hypocritical, but Ivandjiiski sees things differently.

Finally, Zero Hedge addressed the accusations of systematic bias in its content.

“We are certainly ok with being the object of other’s conspiracy theories, in this case completely false ones since we have never been in contact with anyone in Russia, or the US, or any government for that matter,” Zero Hedge says.

The site claims it has never accepted a dime of funding outside of advertising revenue and that Lokey was never pressured about how to frame his articles or editorialized.

According to the Bloomberg article, three men have been churning out all of the content at Zero Hedge, using the joint pseudonym “Tyler Durden” from the Brad Pitt film “Fight Club.” The 1999 cult film, according to Rolling Stone, is “about being young, male and powerless against the pacifying drug of consumerism. It’s about solitude, despair and bottled-up rage.” That ethos is frequently on display at Zero Hedge.

The three “Tyler Durdens” outed by Bloomberg reporters are Colin Lokey, who has now left Zero Hedge in a fit of pique and is responsible for handing over the internal chat sessions from Zero Hedge on traffic-building strategies and other matters. Bloomberg says “the other two men are Daniel Ivandjiiski, 37, the Bulgarian-born former analyst long reputed to be behind the site, a

We'll just have to wait and see if they're right.

They could be, yanno. If Trump faces election blowback from mishandling the crisis, this could be the groundwork for his 'defense': "The Chinese made me do it.".

That's what the article was stating.

Unfortunately, THG, Joe seemz like a milktoast in that ad.

Timid bland boring. Easy to forget. Eazy to ignore.

With Trumps approval ratingz inching up to the upper 40z in spite uv hiz deadly blundering uv the pandemic, I fear that it wont be difficult for Putin and the GoP to keep him in offis.

Well ... there's only 30% of people who identify as republicans. https://news.gallup.com/poll/15370/party-affiliation.aspx

So with the ~48% approval rating calculated by RealClearPolitics https://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/other/president_trump_job_app
roval-6179.html
, there's roughly 18% of Trump-approvers who are independents and even democrats.

Not everyone who supports Trump is a Trumptard who's simply so partisan they'll believe anything he says. I do think you 'misunderestimate' Trump's ability to sell his shtick. And also, there's a percentage of people who look around and ask if there's a better choice, or not.

Look, I'd rather have Cuomo at this point because Biden is really old and past it. However don't forget. Biden had been in the Senate for what, thirty years? He has been vice president. He's more than qualitied.

Here's my larger point and It's shared by many. I don't care if rocky raccoon gets the nomination. I'm voting for him. I'd vote for a homeless guy over Trump. Get it? People having concerns are ok but I don't care. So what, vote for Biden or don't complain about what Trump does should he win. Tell your friends to vote for Biden or don't complain if he should lose and Trump continues to be Trump.

Oh yeah. Even if you think Trump to be exciting and Biden boring, Biden beats Trump in the polls and always has.
