Lindsey Graham leads calls for Trump to STOP his daily briefings in favor of a 'once-a-week show' because they are hurting him

Republican allies of Donald Trump say his daily briefings are hurting his image and have urged him to let medical experts take center stage instead.
The President has been giving daily updates on coronavirus as the country's death toll and infection rate continues to soar.
Senator Lindsey Graham of South Carolina said Mr Trump 'sometimes drowns out his own message' and said a 'once-a-week show' could be more effective.
Rep. Susan Brooks said 'they're going on too long' while Senator Shelley Moore Capito of West Virginia said the briefings were 'going off the rails a little bit'.
Others were concerned that Trump was shifting the focus away from the health crisis and was instead more interested in ratings and slamming his political opponents.
Senator Lindsey Graham told the President 'your opponent is no longer Joe Biden — it's this virus.'
EDITOR'S NOTE: Personally I'm sick and tired of the Trump, Texas Gov. Abbott, Harris County Judge Hidalgo and Houston Mayor Turner daily briefings about information I can readily obtain from the media. I get especially pissed off when they preempt my viewing of "Let's Make A Deal" with Tiffany Coyne, the most gorgeous woman on TV.
Right now (April 10, 2:10 pm Houston time) Gov. Abbott is going on and on, facing two large screens behind him and explaining what the graphs mean that you cannot discern on a home TV screen, thus depriving me of the joyful thrill in seeing Tiffany. Damn it!
All of you - Trump, Abbott, Hidalgo and Turner - please shut the fuck up!!

Don't forget Governor Newsom and Governor Cuomo. They are pumping the situation for as much face time as they can possibly get.
I agree! I don't need to hear it every day by folks repeating what I already know.
Bob, here in the Houston area, Newsom and Cuomo only get a few seconds of time on the morning TV shows and on the evening news broadcasts, while Trump, Abbott, Hidalgo and Turner are a daily nuisance with overly long piles of shopworn horseshit.
