President Donald Trump is someone who values street smarts over book smarts, which is why he continues to say he uses his “gut” and “hunches” when making decisions such as when to lift coronavirus restrictions. Chris Cillizza explains.

1:58 MICKEY MOUSE IN THE FLESH
Not adressing any points he made so you resort to insults, facts dont care about your feelings buddy.
@SEBASTIAN ADAMS Name a fact in this video other than 2011 social media posts
@SEBASTIAN ADAMS This isn’t about presidential preference, but more in ability to say that this is garbage reporting… Regardless of party bias
@SEBASTIAN ADAMS ^^
Aye Internet Mafia is gonna tear this one apart lmao
@Troy Gonzalez you really believe in OZ?.
@Troy Gonzalez wizard of Oz , a fairytale , swoosh right over your head
When I close my eyes I hear Mickey Mouse.
@Blue Rascal It’s a beautiful sound isn’t it!
@Susan Sullivan It’s funny how there’s never any factual “debate” from lib dem communist anti-Americans like yourself, only the arrogantly ignorant ramblings of TDS afflicted group thinkers. If you’d like to actually “debate” the issue of your choosing, please do so using facts. I know, because of your chosen “ideology” of marxism you don’t have any and never did, hence the childish insults. Here’s a little “history” for you socialist goon babbler- https://www.google.com/amp/s/thelibertarianrepublic.com/7-quotes-prove-adolf-hitler-proud-socialist/amp/
@Boogaloo I’m only stating facts, if you can disprove them using the same, please do so.
@Susan Sullivan, MORON!!!
@Jupiter Queen It’s OK, Susan hasn’t yet figured out that she’s a marxist indoctrinated anti-American. It’s no wonder she’s ”confused”, supporting a party that believes there are more than two genders and that ”science” is up for a ”vote”, lol.
The squeaky voice of negativity and desperation. Lol
brilliantly said and explained, ty mr cillizza.
hes so smart he threatened his schools against disclosing just how smart!!
Morons throughout the leftist spectrum NOW say they knew more about the China Virus…than President Trump. Well…lets see: https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=8&v=-KlmMCqdQ2o&feature=emb_logo
Obama spent over 2 million in leagal fees to prevent his birth certificate from being made public. Who would do that? Wake up.
@Ed Dursky you obviously mean all the folks that warned him in january? you know! when he called it a democratic hoax?
@Jim Gibbons and yet it was made public and it was proven to be real
@jerry i Oh u must b referring to th WHO that announced on jan 20 there was no human to human transmission? & then trump banned China travel on jan 31? & Fauci said as late as early March covid was ” nothing 2 worry about”? Oh & u can’t b referring to all th democrats like Pelosi, Cuomo, Deblasio, new York health commissioner, Washington Times, new York post all saying trump is overreacting & covid is nothing to worry about?
guy sounds like Curly from the 3 stooges
Trump does sound like that alright. Too much spray tan.
Ya video guy is gay
Dana Szabo Not even close!!
Agree Dana, but Curly was smarter.
Took forever just for you to say he makes gut decisions
4k dislikes LMFAO!
@James Ryan Ooooooor people are reacting to observable reality, while you stay in your bubble.
@sinklairlewis You can literally take everything you said and say it in a mirror. Obtain some self-awareness. ffs
@Mats K Well maybe find a new job. Most don’t require drinking bleach while huffing your own farts.
Scottymation Only in your imbecilic cultist mind.
@Scottymation LOL, observable reality is Trump on tape contradicting himself over and over and over, and the rest of the time just plain lying. All been fact checked by the NYT. BTW, the rest of the world knows what is what and they don’t watch CNN. You are an embarrassment.
His voice sounds like his balls are in a vise grip.
@Scottymation the video and the facts stated on there?
@SEBASTIAN ADAMS Breaking news!!!! biden picks running mate https://youtu.be/H4FSCqZcl8g
@SEBASTIAN ADAMS Oh. Right. Right. You think opinions are the same as facts. My bad. I see why you’re confused.
Hence the grimacing after every broken sentance.
@Scottymation ok buddy
When in doubt, just wing it
How you getting off topic !! Just a lot of bashing .. how bout give your proposed resolution , no add to the fire
This is your stereotypical soyboy right up top here. ^^^
Does your wife’s boyfriend know that you’re using his phone? We would be here all day arguing with communists and leftists on this fake news channel. You can’t win debates against idiots.
@SEBASTIAN ADAMS Again, not given any points to address. Opinions aren’t facts.
@James Hodges you havent said any points, just insults
@SEBASTIAN ADAMS Neither did the vlogger.
@SEBASTIAN ADAMS You must have a really have a good sex life soy boy
I didn’t know Mark Dice did Chris too.
His voice really has that strong soy accent.
It’s more like the persistent, annoying, drone of you neighbour’s shitty old lawnmower.
Sweet like to dislike ratio.
Aww, CNN is trying to be cool on Youtube.
err – a little bit of news for you ~ the virus has NOT stopped spreading in the US – It’s STILL going up at the highest rate in the world …
*Remember when “The Chosen One” lied saying “Wisconsin is ‘run by Democrats right now’, so they should address election social distancing concerns”?*
