President Trump is not up to the task before him, it seems.

When he should be leading, he is campaigning, even down to the red reelection campaign hat. He is attacking Democrats and the media for causing panic instead of implementing a plan to stanch the panic. He’s even tweeting out pictures of himself fiddling, like Nero. He’s trying to jawbone the stock market, downplay the problem, and blame the media instead of governing and projecting a sense of calm.
