President Donald Trump lashed out at four Democratic governors over their handling of the pandemic after having conceded that states bear ultimate control in the pandemic.

Trump also took renewed aim at one of his favorite political foils, New York Governor Andrew Cuomo, suggesting on Twitter that his state, the U.S. epicenter of the outbreak, had asked for too much assistance that was never fully used.
