AP Poll: Just 23% of Americans Have High Levels of Trust in What Trump Says About COVID-19
Julie Pace and Hannah Fingerhut, reporting for The Associated Press:
Just 28% of Americans say they’re regularly getting information from Trump about the coronavirus and only 23% say they have high levels of trust in what the president is telling the public. Another 21% trust him a moderate amount.
Confidence in Trump is higher among his supporters, though only about half of Republicans say they have a lot of trust in Trump’s information on the pandemic — and 22% say they have little or no trust in what he says about the COVID-19 outbreak.
This is not a good look for a president during an election year, but it’s also not encouraging for our prospects winning the fight against Coronavirus without a lot more death and economic pain, given that our leader inspires so little trust.
