Here in the USA we get almost daily appearances by Trump in the briefing

An interesting piece about these from the New Yorker:
https://www.newyorker.com/news/letter-from-trumps-washington/the-trump-oclock-follies?source=EDT_NYR_EDIT_NEWSLETTER_0_imagenewsletter_Daily_ZZ&utm_campaign=aud-dev&utm_source=nl&utm_brand=tny&utm_mailing=TNY_Daily_032720&utm_medium=email&bxid=5db45bed954fcf222d3c4940&cndid=59016074&esrc=&mbid=&utm_term=TNY_Daily
“ respondents were asked what sources of information about the coronavirus they
found most credible. Democrats rated medical professionals and the Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention most highly. Trump came in last among this
group, at fourteen per cent. But, for Republicans, Trump came in at the top,
with ninety per cent saying that they trusted the President’s information about
the coronavirus, making him tied for first place with medical professionals.
The poll shows that, even when their own lives are literally at stake, a
significant subset of the American population no longer believes in almost
anything other than the President.“
That is truly sad. I expect there will be many, many less republicans
voting in November because of this.
