President Donald Trump defended his pandemic response in an interview broadcast Sunday – including his claims that the coronavirus will simply 'disappear.'
Several viewers of the interview pointed out Trump's repeated misstatements. Political analyst Stuart Rothenberg said the Wallace interview"really shows who and what our president is: Incoherent. Idiotic. Rambling. Insensitive. Illogical. Ignorant. And worse. Great work by Chris Wallace."
Trump attributed the rise in cases to increased testing, though experts said the increased rate of infections far outpaces the increased rate of testing. Increases came after states reopened, moves encouraged by the president. •Refused to say whether he will sign a bill that would grant pay raises to the military but also would require changing the names of forts dedicated to Confederate generals such as Braxton Bragg.
•Suggested he might not sign a new economic relief bill if it does not include legal immunity for businesspeople who fear being sued over the spread of COVID-19 and a payroll tax cut. Some legislators have been cool to both ideas.
