‘I promise you, this president … will work with leaders across this nation at the state and local level and this president will always put the health and safety of American first…’
(Associated Press) Vice President Mike Pence moved Thursday to project calm in the role of chief coordinator of the government’s response to the new coronavirus, as the Trump administration rushed to contain mounting public concerns.
Pence convened his first meeting of the Coronavirus Task Force one day after President Donald Trump made him the government’s point-person for the epidemic.
