Trump Backs Out of Throwing First Pitch

President Trump announced he wouldn’t be throwing out the opening pitch for the New York Yankees next month as he had planned.

Said Trump: “Because of my strong focus on the China Virus, including scheduled meetings on Vaccines, our economy and much else, I won’t be able to be in New York to throw out the opening pitch for the Yankees on August 15th. We will make it later in the season!”

...it's getting back down that presents a problem.

Like a cat that needs Superman to swoop down and get it out of a tree.
