NBC: “The number of people from President Donald Trump’s orbit who have tested positive for the coronavirus is growing, with at least eight confirmed cases tied to an event in the Rose Garden last weekend.”
Health officials are now desperately racing to contact the hundreds of people Trump potentially exposed to the coronavirus during a series of maskless events prior to his diagnosis. While Trump receives the free high quality health care he has categorically denied others, POLITICO reports his careless actions in the past weeks have “the potential to exacerbate outbreaks” in states that have started to see a resurgence of the virus -- all while Trump’s administration fights to strip millions of Americans of their health care.
We’re fighting every day to bring a new administration to the White House that will work to improve the lives of everyday Americans instead of jeopardizing them. Together, we can elect Democrats who will lead with compassion, restore our values, and expand health care when Americans need it most.
But voters around the country have already started casting their ballots, and FiveThirtyEight projects Trump’s chances of winning are similar to those he had in 2016 when millions of voters stayed home to give Trump four years in office. Now more than ever, we need to make sure that Democrats turn out in overwhelming numbers and that all votes are counted, but right now we’re falling behind on the fundraising goals we have to meet to get voters to the polls.
