Priorities USA is a Democratic super-pac.
They've released this short ad which features some of President Trump's direct quotes regarding the coronavirus pandemic (which Duchess also posted in another thread).
Well, the Trump/Pence re-election campaign is now sending cease and desist letter to stations running the ad. https://assets.donaldjtrump.com/2017/web...Letter.pdf
Since the ad includes clips of Trump's own quotes, I don't think the cease and desist request holds much water.
In my opinion, Trump treated the virus much too lightly for much too long. And, he owns all those statements he made; that's just the way it is.
However, I think the quote about the coronavirus being a hoax is misleading. I understood him to mean that the Democrats' criticism of his handling of the public health crisis was a hoax (not the virus itself).
