We went through three weeks of Trump briefings, minute by minute, to index how Trump used the time. https://wapo.st/3bFcFSJ ">https://wapo.st/3bFcFSJ&q...
In those three weeks, he spent about two hours attacking or criticizing others. He spent less than five minutes offering sympathy to those affected — half as much time as he spent talking about hydroxychloroquine. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/13-hours-of-trump-the-president-fills-briefings-with-attacks-and-boasts-but-little-empathy/2020/04/25/7eec5ab0-8590-11ea-a3eb-e9fc93160703_story.html">https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/...
I’ll have more details from this analysis tomorrow.
And one more bit of analysis today: 60 percent of talking at the briefings came from Trump. Other officials were asked questions 80 times — Trump offered his thoughts on 28 of those occasions. https://wapo.st/2S8mSzg ">https://wapo.st/2S8mSzg&q...
