Trump Is Seething Over Having to Work With Pelosi on a Coronavirus Response

with his chief counterpart, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi. Indeed, he suspects that she would use the moment to try to humiliate him.

“At this time, the president does not see it as productive to [personally] negotiate directly with Nancy Pelosi,” said one of the senior administration officials. “For now, it’s best for her to deal directly with Sec. Mnuchin and others in the administration.

Story continuesAccordingly, while Mnuchin and Pelosi have spoken several times this week—including at an in-person meeting in the Speaker’s office on Tuesday—the president and the Speaker have not spoken at all in recent days, according to her office. The president has also not spoken to Democratic Senate leader Chuck Schumer , according to his office.

The refrain from Democrats on both sides of the Capitol has been that the most effective way to mitigate the economic effects of the virus is to implement measures that help to slow its spread—like sick leave, which would make it easier for people to stay home. “The president sort of pitched a number of ideas that his team has looked at and recommended them for consideration,” said Sen. Josh Hawley . “What was clear was that he certainly urges action and thinks action should be taken soon. I think he would prefer sooner rather than later.”

Yeah- I would be too. Although I feel this is just fake news. As always.

This headline is trash. He is doing a great job navigating this world pandemic.

What a man-child.

oh he is not ffs...he is the one who wants bi partisan compliance and she is off bitching about political correctness....she is a waste of human flesh

Pence: Don’t know if Trump has been tested for coronavirusThe Vice President was asked if he or the President had been tested for the coronavirus. He said he hasn’t been tested and on Trump, “I don’t know the answer to that question … we’ll refer that question and get you an answer from the White House physician very quickly.” Think I have this right: Gaetz posts a jokey gas mask photo. Gaetz goes to conservative conference, personally interacts with a carrier. Gaetz boards Air Force One afterward, with Trump. Assumed personal interaction. But no idea if Trump has had a test... Shouldn't the VP, who is in charge of containing it, know whether the Prez has been tested? What else doesn't Pence know? If you were asking that question out of concern it would be different. It wouldn't surprise anyone if someone carried the virus to him on purpose with all the hate that has been spread around by the MSM. Is that why you are asking him? Suspect.

Trump has not been tested for coronavirus, White House says, despite indirect contact'The president has not received COVID-19 testing because he has neither had prolonged close contact with any known confirmed COVID-19 patients, nor does he have any symptoms,' White House press secretary Stephanie Grisham said. I don't think it needs to be prolonged. It's just a matter if there was contact or not. Yeah, not buying that... The guy is a germaphobe, there's no way he hasn't been tested, heck he's probably had the test done multiple times just to be extra sure. That's a good message to calm the masses if they believed in him. The majority do not.
