“The world is at war with a hidden enemy. WE WILL WIN!” Trump wrote.

Trump’s post on social media received mixed reactions from his followers and critics. Some agreed and are with him for victory. Meanwhile, others doubted the POTUS and said that he was lying.

“I feel more confident than ever that we will defeat the coronavirus under President Trump’s fearless leadership. Who is with me?!” @real_defender commented.

A different user said that he doesn’t care what will happen in the next seven months and if the stock market goes to zero, but he is voting for Trump.

“I’m voting for Donald Trump & nothing is going to stop me. In the end, we win,” the netizen announced.

Meanwhile, some attacked the POTUS for allegedy lying. Another said that the Americans are at war against Trump and with everything that he represents.

“He certainly did not listen to God: ‘Thou shalt not lie’. He told our nation this was a hoax. He told us we could go to work with the virus. He told us this was not worse than a cold or flu. He told us he had control on it. He told us we had enough test kits,” @Pamela_Gardner wrote.

“We are at war with white supremacy, racism, anti-Black bigotry, sexism, xenophobia, pathological lying, treason, rape, perversion, criminality, narcissism, and wickedness— in other words, we are at war with everything that you represent,” @TalbertSwan opined.

On Monday’s briefing, Trump was asked to rate his response to coronavirus. The POTUS said that he would give himself a perfect 10. The netizens reacted quickly and many said they were surprised he didn’t say 11. This prompted some to conclude that Trump rated himself 10 only because he knew he didn’t perform well.

“In other words it’s a complete disaster lol,” one netizen wrote.
