How bad will it get and what will it take for the economy to recover? Are the president, Congress and the Federal Reserve doing enough? Nobel prize winning economist and NY Times columnist Paul Krugman weighs in.
Segment 2- Donald Trump was counting on a strong economy, low unemployment and a soaring stock market to get him re-elected. The pandemic ended that plan. Now he is using the daily Coronovirus briefing as a political rally. Is it working or is it backfiring? We talk to New York Times Chief White House Correspondent Peter Baker.
