Last night, President Donald Trump, citing the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, held a telephonic town hall for the first time, telling supporters in Wisconsin, "until that gets solved it's going to be tough to have those big massive rallies, so I'm doing telephonic rallies." 
In a stunning, bald-faced dog-whistle to white suburban voters, Trump warned that Joe Biden "wants to hurt the suburbs...bringing who knows into your suburbs, so your communities will be unsafe and your housing values will go down."
Trump repeated unsupported claims that Vice President Joe Biden will "defund your police, abolish probably your police," and warned, they're indoctrinating our children with hate... we want to indoctrinate them with a great history of our country and the heroes of our country."
In remarks last night, Donald Trump acknowledged federal authorities arresting protesters in Portland, OR, saying, "we have people out right now in Portland stopping the anarchists and the agitators from what they're doing. If I didn't do that, they would destroy Portland."
In a telephonic rally last night, Donald Trump hinted federal authorities, like the ones who've arrested protesters in unmarked vans in Oregon, may be headed to Chicago and New York, warning, "we're gonna have to do something there, we have no choice."

Once again, Trump ties a surge in coronavirus cases to increased testing, saying "Our testing program is the best in the world, we've tested almost 50 million people, & when you do that it's going to show more cases, & so we show more cases but it's still the right thing to do."
