Anyone notice Trump's ...

...conspicuous exclusion of Washington from comments on working with states?

You know, that state run by Inslee, the "snake"? The one that's at the top of the top three in number of cases (ahead of CA and NY)?

There's been a tremendous amount of coordination with states, and cities. They're a little smaller form of government. And things are going well. They are coordinating with us. Certainly, in particular, I think California has been terrific. The relationship. New York has been really good. We've had some really good relationships, in terms of, especially the hotspots. And we're focused on those hotspots. Some areas we have no problem whatsoever, and we want to keep it that way. Before I turn this over....


He is so petty he can't even get the word "Washington" out of his mouth. The closest he comes is an oblique reference: "We've had some really good relationships, in terms of, especially the "hotspots."

On edit

I also love this:

"states, and cities. They're a little smaller form of government"


Gee, thanks for clearing that up.

Who aren't waiting to fellate dear leader before taking decisive - science based - actions to help their state.
