The White House is now using the daily coronavirus briefing to play Fox News segments and glowing in-house videos about the administration response.

The video now shows various governors saying nice things about Trump. A reminder that Trump effectively told governors they had to say nice things about him if they wanted their calls for help returned.

Trump confirms the video was produced by White House staff.

Trump is now bragging about all the “clips” he has saved of people saying nice things about him.

Trump says he knows his retweet included the “FireFauci” hashtag but says he won’t fire him because he’s a wonderful guy (moments earlier he said he had tape of Fauci saying nice things about him that he could have played)

More than 20 mins into the daily briefing and there has been zero information about the deadly pandemic sweeping across the US. It has been a political rally about the President’s response.
