Under fire for his silence in the face of America's spiralling coronavirus caseload, President Donald Trump heads to Mount Rushmore on Friday for ...
, President Donald Trump heads to Mount Rushmore on Friday for a night of fireworks that he hopes will soothe a nation he has struggled to unite.
The Republican president is in a political predicament, badly trailing his Democratic rival Joe Biden in the polls with four months to go before the presidential election.For now, he is sticking with one tried-and-true message, that he conveyed on Thursday: The coronavirus crisis is being"handled", the US economy is"roaring back", and 2021 is going to be a"phenomenal" year.
"Those who want to come and join us, we'll be giving out free face masks, if they choose to wear one. But we will not be social distancing."The last sitting US president to visit Mount Rushmore was George W Bush, in 2002.
