Washington, April 28 (RHC)-- The Washington Post is reporting that intelligence agencies warned President Donald Trump about the threat of the coronavirus in over a dozen classified briefings in January and February. 

The warnings came in the President’s Daily Brief, which Trump regularly skips reading, according to the Post’s sources.  Despite the warnings, the president continued to downplay the severity of the threat into February.

Earlier this week, Trump was questioned about the fallout from his dangerous suggestion last week that injecting disinfectants might help patients sick with COVID-19.  Asked about the more than 100 cases of poisoning by people taking his advice to digest chorine or Lysol, the U.S. president firmly refused to take responsibility for his comments.
