The president message is that he fixed the economy. Citing the Stock Market and job numbers (a lagging indicator) as proof. He could not even bother to admit the pandemic was coming until the stock market crashed. And governors starting ordering businesses to close. Only then did he realize it was a threat to his reelection - the only thing that matters to The Don. It is always and only about him. No empathy has been demonstrated for anyone else.
