US President Donald Trump’s companies received more than $2.5m from taxpayers during his first term as president. The Washington Post has compiled record requests and public documents to declare his properties billed $3 for servings of water and $88 bottles of wine among a raft of charges for official White House events. However, Melania Trump faces renewed conspiracy theories that she uses a body double after a new picture set off a fresh round of speculation on social media. President Trump has been raging on Twitter against Fox News for being insufficiently loyal and complaining about the media’s coverage of the coronavirus pandemic.

Point to be noted that the coronavirus pandemic has killed more than 226,000 Americans since its beginning. The former US president Barack Obama criticized Donald Trump for being jealous of the media coverage that the coronavirus pandemic receives. He was speaking at a Biden-Harris campaign rally, he said, “What’s his closing argument? That people are too focused on Covid. He said this at one of his rallies. He was complaining, Covid, Covid, Covid. He’s jealous of Covid’s media coverage. You can’t think of anything you might be doing differently? Like, maybe you shouldn’t have gone on TV and suggested we might inject bleach to cure Covid?”

Barack Obama also called out President Trump’s apparent inability to handle the coronavirus at the scale of the executive mansion. Obama said, “I lived in the White House. You know, it’s a controlled environment. You can take some preventive measures in the White House to avoid getting sick, except this guy can’t seem to do it. He’s turned the White House into a hot zone”. He added, “We can’t be complacent. We were complacent last time. Look what happened. Not this time, not in this election”. The former US President didn’t hold back in his criticism of Donald Trump or his administration. Obama said, “Even Florida Man wouldn’t do some of this stuff. Why would we accept it from the President of the United States?”
