Now 191,500+ #COVID19 U.S. deaths under Trump's watch. gisanddata.maps.arcgis.com/apps/opsdashbo…

Again, this is not a news conference. It's a taxpayer-paid political event.

Reporters should not be participating as an audience during these taxpayer-paid events.

Reporters should get up & leave as soon as Trump turns these into campaign events & mentions @JoeBiden.

The money Trump keeps talking about for the military is NOT going to soldiers & their families.

U.S. soldiers are surviving on very little pay.

Trump has not rebuilt the military.

Trump repeatedly lied about severity of #COVID19.

Claiming he was trying to calm the public with a lie is still a lie.

A lie is still a lie, no matter if Trump claims it was to "show confidence."

He lied about #COVID19.

Trump: What we're doing is leading.

He's correct. The U.S. leads in #COVID19 deaths & cases.
191,500+ deaths.
Nearly 6.4 million cases.
More than any other nation.

With no evidence, Trump insisting U.S. is rounding the final turn with #COVID19.

Trump again claims COVID-19 vaccine coming soon, despite top officials - including @SteveFDA today - saying there's no way to know that right now.

Fauci & @NIHDirector said soon is highly unlikely.

Trump again lying about "treason."

It's telling that the only adviser Trump had there with him today was Scott Atlas.
