Trump’s challenger, Democrat Joe Biden has made criticism of the Republican’s handling of the coronavirus — and frequent downplaying of the pandemic’s seriousness — a key issue.
Daily Times earlier reported that Donald Trump said he and the First Lady would begin their quarantine and recovery process immediately and expressed optimism they will get through it together.
