By Oliver Willis -May 6, 2020 6:02 PM
Trump has been using the pandemic to promote himself, even bragging about ratings as the death toll increased.
During a press briefing on Wednesday, Donald Trump's new press secretary, Kayleigh McEnany, decried "publicity stunts" during the coronavirus pandemic, criticizing House Democrats for trying to hold oversight hearings that the White House is trying to block.
"We don't have time in the middle of a pandemic for publicity stunts," said McEnany. She added, "This is not the time for that, it's not the place for that."
The complaint comes just three days after Trump was interviewed by the conservative Fox News Channel at the Lincoln Memorial. Interior Secretary David Bernhardt deemed the Fox appearance "a core governmental function" in order to lift the ban on events at the memorial.
Notably, Trump claimed during the interview that he was treated "worse than Lincoln," who was assassinated.
