"Numbers were minimal. Numbers were going to be 100,000 people." -- Trump dodges a question about whether he takes any responsibility for the number of US coronavirus deaths surpassing 50,000

TRUMP: "The Postal Service is a joke ... the Post Office should raise the price of a package by approximately four times ... for some reason they're very cozy with some of these companies ... they don't want to raise it because they don't want to insult Amazon."

"I was asking a sarcastic, & a very sarcastic question, to the reporters in the room about disinfectant on the inside. But it does kill it." -- Trump tries to rewrite history, says he was speaking "sarcastically" when he mused about disinfectant injections being cure for Covid.

"A friend of mine -- a very sophisticated friend -- said, 'I never knew you had 184 countries.' We actually have more that.": Trump claims mid-rant that a friend of his was surprised to learn how many countries there are in the world

REPORTER: Have you or Sec. Azar pressured or asked scientists in the administration to promote hydroxychloroquine?

Trump, who yesterday mused about whether disinfectant "injection inside" the body could cure coronavirus, is now trying to say he was just musing about disinfectant products on hands

TRUMP: I was looking at you yesterday when I was being sarcastic about disinfectants

JEFF MASON: I wasn't there yesterday

ANOTHER REPORTER: You were looking at Dr Birx

TRUMP: I was looking at Bill, the doctor, I was looking at some of the reporters
