For the first time in his presidency President Donald Trump has reached out to a former top Obama administration official for help, and it wasn’t President Barack Obama.
President Donald Trump and former Vice President Joe Biden spoke Monday afternoon about the coronavirus pandemic, after Biden expressed legitimate concerns about how the 45th President is handling the outbreak.
The two spoke by phone, according to CNN and other outlets. The White House has not released a transcript nor any details about what the world leaders said, who called whom, for how long they spoke, or if Trump agreed to take any actions based on the conversation.
Just hours ago President Trump had attacked Biden:
Trump has repeated lied about the former Vice President’s handling of the 2009 swine flu pandemic, including in these tweets, which are false:
Biden and his campaign have been hammering Trump on his mishandling of the crisis, while offering suggestions to help Americans.
