The United States deaths is about to reach 200,000 as Trump gives himself "an A+" for his "on the job" pandemic performance. The Trump earlier said, "We've done a phenomenal job." United States has 4 percent of the world's population, but 21 percent of coronavirus deaths. Trump supporters boo Ohio republican for encouraging them to wear masks. The CDC suddenly reverses guidelines that said covid can spread through "small particles, such as those in aerosols." The CDC reverses itself and says that new language on how covid spread was added in "error" amid concerns about political pressure. The Trump administration and the Department of Justice names New York City, Seattle and Portland as "anarchy" cities and jurisdictions and threatens to cut funding; swing-state cities have not been named. The GOP discusses two options for timing of SCOTUS conformation vote, as Trump says he "much rather have a vote before the election." CNN reports that Trump met with candidate Judge Amy Coney Barrett at the White House today and says that Judge Barbara Lagoa is "excellent" and was seen as "very impressive."
