KEY STORIES FROM TRUMP’S TERRIBLE WEEK!

• Editor’s note: To underscore the “fading away” of national leadership that has lacked a cohesive COVID-19 response, the Trump Administration has been informed that the European Union (EU) is preparing to issue a new travel ban on the US due to the spread of coronavirus cases in the country. In the last 65+ years, the U. S. has been the “gold standard” on being aggressive to stop community spread of diseases.
• That the EU may ban Americans demonstrates Trump has forfeited how the U. S. is now perceived worldwide!
• And speaking of fading away, Trump was even absent from his own Coronavirus Task Force briefing yesterday, their first in 2 months!
• This caps off a really bad week for a “fading” Trump!
