Americans are still grappling with a global pandemic that has claimed nearly 180,000 lives in the U.S. alone. But America First Action, the largest super PAC supporting President Donald Trump’s reelection, is about to go all-in on the economy.

Trump signed four executive orders related to unemployment relief, payroll taxes, federal student loan debt and eviction moratoriums earlier this month to fill the gap left by stalled congressional negotiations over a fourth round of Covid-19 assistance, though many of the measures — such as the unemployment aid — are proving difficult to implement. And the Biden campaign accused Trump of raiding Social Security to fund the deferral of payroll taxes.

“One of the things we’re seeing in the polls right now is people are becoming more focused on the economy. It’s been Covid, Covid, Covid, but now people are starting to say, ‘OK what’s the plan for the next four years?’” Walsh said. The economy-centric approach in the group’s first major ad buy this fall mirrors the attitude Trump and his aides have adopted toward the Covid-19 pandemic and resulting economic fallout. Until the president resumed regular updates on the virus and vaccines at the White House last month, he and his top aides spent June and July pouring their energy into the economic reopening and a push to resume in-person learning for schoolchildren this fall.

President Trump cares about American citizens. He acted swiftly and decisively against the COVID 19 virus when he closed down travel from China and then when he closed the economy. Now he is cancelling the Republican convention for the safety of all.

Everything including cancer has been labeled China flu death.

Apparently the RNC got 6 times the amount of viewers first night, compared to the DNC first night. Why? Dems are like a broken record with their Trump hate and there is little actual political content in the Biden camp.
