1/3 Remember how Trump said he finally understood after getting it himself?

3/3 Trump Pausing Coronavirus Relief Talks Until After The Election npr.org/sections/lates…

"Trump says he intends to debate Biden next week in Miami. He could still be infectious."

Could be infectious? He could be dead. This is not the sort of thing where he should be traveling and debating and doing ANY of this! nytimes.com/live/2020/10/0…
Trump crashes the stock markets. Again.
