Are the daily coronavirus briefings hurting Trump?

It hadn’t occurred to me that the briefings might explain why the small bounce in his job approval after the virus crisis hit had begun to fade. I thought it might be because there’d been more reporting lately about how the feds bungled their initial response to the outbreak. Or it might be a simple reaction to the rising death toll and gruesome unemployment numbers. The briefings seemed like the least likely explanation because Trump sounds at them like he always does.

But maybe that’s just it. He sounds like he always does.

"Allahpundit" is or is close to being a Never-Trumper. Agree or disagree with him, that is the bias he brings to matters Trump.

With that context, I think Trump's briefings inform the American people about events and progress the MSM are spiking. And Trump is letting the MSM go steroidal-beclown-mode in their "questions". So no, I think the daily briefings help Trump and the American people.
