WASHINGTON (AP) President Donald Trump, a self-described germaphobe, cant seem to stop shaking hands -- even in the midst of this coronavirus pandemic.
Trump was surrounded by several retail and health care industry executives on Friday as he announced he was declaring the virus outbreak a national emergency.
One by one, the president invited them to the lectern at the Rose Garden press conference to say a few words. He also shook several of their hands.
Public health officials have told Americans to avoid handshakes, as a key social distancing measure, to try to limit the spread of the virus.

They say he's a germophobe but then he schtupped a porn star without a condom.
