Listen Later

President Trump arrived in the emerging coronavirus hotspot of Midland-Odessa this week to fundraise and lend his support to the struggling Texas oil and gas industry. But his visit was overshadowed by the fact that two Republicans, Rep. Louie Gohmet and congressional nominee from Houston Wesley Hunt, were diagnosed with Covid-19. Meantime, new Texas GOP Chairman Allen West welcomes the decision by comedian Joe Rogan to move to Texas from California because of "more freedom."
