Scandalous statements on COVID-19 reduced the level of trust in Trump by 15%

Americans are increasingly skeptical of Donald Trump’s claims regarding coronavirus infection.

Scandalous statements on COVID-19 reduced the level of trust in Trump by 15%

This is evidenced by a survey of the research company “Ipsos”, which was conducted throughout the United States. It was attended by more than a thousand Americans.

According to the study, 47% of respondents said that they “exactly” or “to some extent” would follow the president’s recommendations regarding COVID-19. A month ago, this figure was 15 percentage points higher.

At the same time, 98% of the respondents assured that they did not intend to inject bleach or other disinfectants in case of infection with COVID-19. Trump made a relevant proposal during a briefing last week.
