Fewer voters are pleased with the way the Trump administration has handled the Covid-19 outbreak.

More voters say the Trump administration isnt doing enough to combat the coronavirus outbreak, according to a new POLITICO/Morning Consult poll.
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 isnt doing enough in response to the outbreak, greater than the 40 percent who feel the administration is doing the right amount.
Two weeks ago, 43 percent said the administration wasnt doing enough in the days following the initial measures deployed to reduce the impacts of the virus, while 39 percent said it was doing the right amount.
While the new poll was conducted before the extension of the household isolation recommendations, it comes as other polls suggest the positive marks Trump earned for his early response to the crisis are turning more negative.

OP
Bush got a huge bounce after 9/11, but that receded once it was clear they were warned beforehand

think they realized how led astray they have been. I've not read any negatives about either one of the. Just informative and intelligent.
