Trump Administration Has Yet To Pay USPS For COVID-19 Postcard Issued In March

The White House received flak when it sent out the postcard on March 16 due to its large headline, which read “PRESIDENT TRUMP’S CORONAVIRUS GUIDELINES FOR AMERICA.”.

At the time, Trump repeatedly downplayed the coronavirus in media briefings, comparing it to the common flu, arguing that more Americans were likely to die in automobile accidents and calling for the country to reopen quickly.

The letter went on to lambaste the decision to credit the safety recommendations to Trump, arguing that it was “particularly misleading considering the fact that [Trump] has frequently undermined these very CDC guidelines.”
