On Wednesday, one of Joe Biden’s top campaign staffers tweeted that President Trump “decided” to let the coronavirus get “out of hand.”
Team Biden Staffer Attack’s Trump’s Coronavirus Address
After President Trump’s Oval Office address, Rob Flaherty wrote, “Sure seems like this is getting out of hand and Donald Trump decided to let it be this way.”
Sure seems like this is getting out of hand and Donald Trump decided to let it be this way.

Flaherty serves as Biden’s 2020 digital director. He made his accusation literally just right after the President encouraged Americans to put “politics aside, stop the partisanship, and unify as one nation and one family.”
“Each of us has a role to play in defeating this virus,” Trump said. “Wash your hands, clean often-used surfaces, cover your face and mouth if you sneeze or cough, and most of all, if you are sick or not feeling well, stay home.”
‘The virus will not have a chance against us’
“The virus will not have a chance against us,” Trump added.
Donald Trump’s address from the Oval Office Wednesday night is exactly what the nation needed to hear from its president in this trying time. Many Americans are afraid, unsure of what to think or even how to behave right now in their day-to-day routine.
President Trump sought to soothe those fears, offer some helpful guidelines and announce policies that might help the country through this rough time.
It was exactly what any respectable leader should have said.
??Thank you for making that clear, President Trump. And for taking steps to ensure that all Americans are able to overcome this difficult but temporary situation.
Thank God you're really fighting for the American people?? showing how serious the #Coronavirus is! #CODVID19 pic.twitter.com/2PThUiKPlP

Shame On Biden’s Staffer
For anyone on Joe Biden’s campaign team to undermine this, tells you plenty about how they intend to operate as we head into the 2020 presidential general election.
It has always been a Catch 22 for Trump. If he shoots from the hip, his critics say he’s being “unpresidential.” If he does what any Commander-in-Chief would in a time of crisis, as he did Wednesday night, Democrats find something wrong with that too.

President Trump deserves praise for doing what he could Wednesday to help navigate America through this unstable time–and shame on anyone on Joe Biden’s team who would seek to undermine that valiant effort.
You don't like Trump's speech on coronavirus?
Show calm leadership.
Don Lemon is panicking.
We've been here before, friends, we lived through market crash of 2008.
I saw friends go bankrupt.
It's going to be rough.
Saddle in.
We got this.
