President Donald Trump paid a visit to Florida on Friday for a roundtable discussion on the dual threat of the new coronavirus and the fast-approaching hurricane season. But he quickly turned the trip to Tampa into an impromptu campaign rally, complete with MAGA hats and music blaring for supporters
At the time of his arrival, the Sunshine State had not only hit a grim new milestone with a record 257 COVID-19 deaths in a single day, but it had also closed all government-run COVID-19 testing centers until Tuesday due to the incoming Hurricane Isaias.
Florida has the second-highest confirmed count of coronavirus cases in the country, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. “As long as I’m president, I will never defund your police,” he boasted. Of the hurricane, he said, “You’ve seen worse. You’ve seen some beauties.”
