The POTUS was angered by the serious warning by the WH Task Force coronavirus response coordinator Dr. Deborah Birx during an interview she gave on Sunday. President Dr. Birx was frank about the country entering a "new phase" or transmission effecting all areas of the country, with a grim warning about the potential of spread from young people to the seniors and more vulnerable members in their homes.
Trump, angered by what he sees as overly pessimistic media coverage of his handling of the pandemic, said Birx had given into pressure to sound negative.

"Deborah took the bait & hit us. Pathetic!" he tweeted.

On Sunday, Birx told CNN that the United States, which has already seen nearly 155,000 deaths from COVID-19, is entering "a new phase" of viral spread.

"It is extraordinarily widespread," she said. "To everybody who lives in a rural area, you are not immune or protected from this virus."

Trump can't keep up this facade that everything is hunky-dory. I don't know what reality he's living in, but it sure as hell has never been this one.

Of course he is mad. She contradicted his stance. He will attempt to undermined her as he has tried to do with Faucci.
