The cases there are coming faster than anything weve seen come over this white house. The problem is, trumps reckl s recklessness has him closing key players just as the country needs him and his team most. Instead of making it better for people, he seems intent on making it worse. Ripping off his mask and letting his covid breath rip roar around the white house. Does it make him look like a patriot in chief to ignore the only thing we have keeping us safe from a pandemic . He said he wanted to get back to work, so he gets out of the hospital but abandons negotiations on Economic Relief for millions al after the election. People are living week to week. Millions are struggling to get by during the pandemic and hes still choosing just to risk it all.

Complacency. We cant show it. Weve got a president saying hes probably going to try to deny the results of the election on november 3rd.

And he wasnt president. He didnt have tools at his disposal to disenfranchise or confuse or sow doubt. Hes got the tools now, so we have to make it clear. Is pence a good debater sf. Hes a great communicator. He was a radio talk show host for years befor
Reporter yeah, wolf. As you said. This is going to be a campaignstyle rally here in phoenix. One of several the president has held since the inauguration. Its actually going to be the furthest west that donald trump has gone since becoming president , and we should expect some familiar faces on hand with him. The Vice President , mike pence. His chief of staff, john kelly. Its also notable who is going to be absent from this rally. Arizonas two republican senators. Both john mccain and jeff flake, very critical of the president. Both of them had very harsh words for him after his response to the violence in charlottesville at that Press Conference in trump tower one week ago. And the president Didnt Hesitates when responding to that criticism, specifically from jeff flake. He took to twitter last week saying that the arizona senator is weak and a nonfactor in the senate. And praising his potential gop primary opponent dr. Kelly ward. Its unclear whether or not dr. The response hes gott
