Gov. Evers said Trump has repeatedly downplayed the virus, which makes it harder for the economy to recover, left states to bid against one another for testing strips and other supplies, and sent out mixed messages about infectious disease expert, Dr. Anthony Fauci.

“I don’t know how you can spend your time belittling and demeaning a person and then continue to say he’s your friend and he is a leader in this area,” Evers said. “ It couldn’t be weirder. I don’t know how else to put it.”
