CORONAVIRUS/COVID-19/TRUMP AS PRESIDENT: [Reporter: “So you’re bringing back the coronavirus briefings?”] “Well, we had very successful briefings. I was doing them, and we had a lot of people watching — record numbers watching. In the history of cable television — television, there’s never been anything like it…
But we’ve have had this big flare-up in Florida, Texas, a couple of other places… And let’s say that ended six weeks ago, and we’ll start them again. And I think it’s a great way to get information out to the public as to where we are with the vaccines, with the therapeutics, and, generally speaking, where we are.”
