Colorado Republican Party to cancel Primary if Trump kept off ballot

From the moment he rode down the Trump Tower escalator to announce his first presidential campaign, a searing question has hung over the Republican Party: Is this the moment to break from Donald Trump?

U.S. President Donald Trump abruptly ended his coronavirus press briefing at the White House on May 11 after clashing with female reporters. 

The discussion flared up after Weijia Jiang, a White House correspondent for CBS News, asked why he has repeatedly been saying that the U.S. is doing better than other countries when it came to testing for the virus while people are dying.

A fired-up Donald Trump took aim once more at Democratic lawmakers who "hate" America as he hit the campaign trail on July 17, hours after an opposition bid to impeach the U.S. president over "racist" attacks was shot down in Congress.
