I legitimately think he cares about the American public, but his heart really isn't in it compared to the stock market. It's the equivalent of a parent-child relationship, sure you bringing money in to support your family is critical for their survival and loss of that income could be cataclysmic and devastating, but it's still also possible to care more about the balance of your check book than your kid.
Yeah, it's certainly possible that is how Trump feels about things. It's also possible that he cares about the stock market a lot because that's one of the main things he was campaigning on and has worked to implement policies he felt would help it only to see it all come crashing down due to this virus. As a result he might feel the stock market is vital to his 2020 chances and in his mind if he loses the policies of Bernie would be very detrimental to Americans. Either way it's pretty difficult IMO to know what a person's real motivation is and how it might intertwine with the good of someone else and which is a priority, as you mentioned. What concerns me more right now though is the inability of Congress (both sides) to hammer out a deal when there are tons of people who really need something soon to help them out.
