   Usually the left is more rude.  I can't apply that generalisation to Trump though.  He is the rudest leader ever.
I have to argue with both of you Mommy and Witchy, The left wing will attack Trump whatever he does.  The right would be just the same if the tables were turned.   That is just the way things are and why politicians need hides like a rhino.  (Trump himself is an attack force on legs.  If there were no opposition he would probably attack himself.)
As a centrist, I don't think Trump did all that well at the start, and before the current crisis, gutting the CDC was desperately short sighted.  But our politicians over here have done far worse.  They started with a better understanding, but failed to keep up as the situation changed.  They had a theory and they have stuck to it despite massive accumulating evidence to the contrary and desperate protestations from the WHO.  A huge group of scientists petitioned them to change tack, which fell on deaf ears.  Trump and co, on the other hand, seem to be learning as they go along and are making up for their poor start.  

I think Trump a disaster of a human being, but I would rather have him than the guy I actually voted for.
