Reason magazine coronavirus4/6/2024 a Presidential tweet confirmed that Trump and the First Lady both have COVID-19. If there is one thing he has not wanted the election of 2020 to be a referendum on, it is his handling of the disease. In the seven months since the coronavirus became a national crisis, Trump has done everything he could to deny, deflect, and generally distract from the pandemic and his government’s botched handling of it. At least the headlines were not focussed on the pandemic and concurrent economic crisis, which experts warned were on the precipice of getting much, much worse. In the upside-down world of this Presidency, it was not necessarily a terrible few hours on the campaign trail. “Give me a fucking break,” the First Lady said. On Thursday evening, news broke that Trump’s wife had been secretly taped by her former best friend ranting about her onerous White House Christmas duties and the unfairness of being blamed for her husband locking up migrant children in cages. Trump’s former national-security adviser was on television charging that the President is “aiding and abetting” Vladimir Putin by attacking the legitimacy of the forthcoming election. The President was still refusing to repudiate white supremacy and his press secretary was still lying about it, part of the continued fallout from Trump’s disastrous debate performance days earlier. As Thursday began, it seemed like just another day of Trumpian meltdown in the nation’s capital.
