Pelosi uses ‘Trump virus’ label in dig at the president
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., torched President Trump in their back-and-forth war of words Tuesday, calling the coronavirus the "Trump virus" in an effort to blame the president's response for the ongoing pandemic.
For the first time since April, Trump on Tuesday revived the White House's coronavirus task force briefings and urged Americans to wear masks, warning the pandemic would probably "get worse" before it gets better. He also repeatedly referred to COVID-19 as the "China virus."

Speaking to CNN, though, Pelosi suggested the president's efforts were too little, too late.
"I think with the president's comments today, he has recognized the mistakes that he has made -- by now embracing mask-wearing and the recognition that this is not a hoax, it is a pandemic that has gotten worse before it gets better because of his inaction and, in fact, clearly, it is the Trump virus," Pelosi said.
