i imagine many reporters will shout at him to get a reaction. the administration is dealing with covid, the pandemic impacting cities and states all across the country. the president will be delivering an address on tuesday. we don t know what time talking about what the federal government can do to help those places that are struggling to keep up with what is going on. molly: as shortage of things to focus on at the white house. now the announcement results in anger on the left and the light on the right. we have more from washington on reaction. lawmaker reaction ranges from relief on the right to the left to still something he could be swayed and on the far left his decision is being taken as peter betrayal. we all knew that senator manchin cannot be traced on - trusted. i think his excuses are - .
