Ivanka Trump Lassos $1.6B for Virus-Slammed Small Companies

“The COVID-19 crisis demands collaboration, unity, and common purpose. Unfortunately, Trump Derangement Syndrome has critically afflicted far too many of my colleagues across the aisle. Many people wish we could force politicians to shut down their partisan gamesmanship as easily as we shut down coffee shops and diners. Sadly, we can’t,” Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) writes in the Washington Examiner.
President Trump unveiled a new hashtag yesterday to highlight Americans helping one another during the Coronavirus pandemic. He’ll use “the #AmericaWorksTogether hashtag to promote companies that are hiring employees in the middle of the economic turmoil caused by the virus and those who are donating food and other supplies to front line health care workers,” John Fritze and Courtney Subramanian report for USA Today.
When President Trump limited travel from China in January—a move that bought America precious time—the World Health Organization slammed the decision. “The record is clear: The WHO has lent its imprimatur to Chinese disinformation and blessed China’s slow response to its domestic outbreak, which likely caused a 20-fold increase in cases,” the National Review editorial board writes.
