No, I think he should go. He needs to get the virus.

Good decision

The other world leaders will have to order their own hamberders.

Because of the coronavirus

DeityFree That’ll make him rage!

alonsokmaxilian I thought this was all one bigly hoax? No? Huh. You mean realDonaldTrump lied about it? I don't believe it! LOLOL

Oh, cancelled because of a hoax?

Works for me. Very smart. All of our countries are affected and taking a chance would be foolish. Also - the FakeNews won't be able to misreport it. Right, NPR?

World leaders be meeting all digital 'yo.

I thought it was a hoax?

A big win for the climate in avoiding six private jets and entourage traveling to the US, motorcades, etc.

question - does someone in the trump family own the video conferencing software?

Trump dubs himself a wartime presidentNew York Times White House correspondent Peter Baker says President Trump’s shift in tone on coronavirus “reflects a realization on his part that this can’t be talked away. This can’t be tweeted away.” Well you clowns claimed he was going to start WWIII. China started it with the Chinese Virus I believe that this man trump wanted to ruin our country that's why he ran for president. BS peterbakernyt shift in tone is the latest ploy to recreate Trump as “wartime commander” for obvious and less obvious reasons. Can you stop with the neutrality and report realistically about Trump. Maybe if you did we’d be safer. We don’t need a FOX news outlet at the NYT.

Trump is not the first president to try sending stimulus checks to AmericansProviding direct stimulus payments is not a novel idea. The last president to do so was former President George W. Bush, who mailed out checks during the recessions of 2001 and 2008 to mitigate economic pain. Yeah, and then we basically had to pay it back... Trump didn't say it was. Such a garbage, misleading headline. I think we should wait before we criticize period. We’ve got so much dread right now. Please be positive
