Scapegoating
The President is an expert in blaming someone else for his failures. He knows the art of scapegoating. If there is success, it is because he is brilliant. If failure, it is because someone else is responsible. The public isn't fooled for long, and Trump's popularity numbers have declined since the eruption of COVID-19. That doesn't stop Trump from holding daily press conferences where he rambles on about what he is doing to slow the spread of the disease. He makes statements then contradicts them the same or next day. He gets facts wrong and stands by the errors. He is an example of what leadership shouldn't be. The question in the minds of voters is whether his scapegoating disqualifies him for another four years in office. One can only hope.
