President Donald Trump has said the disappearance of 84-year-old Nancy Guthrie is a “very sad situation,” but also suggested it’s time to start reporting on other issues.

The president made the remark while aboard Air Force One on Thursday (February 19), when he was asked by Fox News’ Peter Doocy for his thoughts on the Guthrie case. The mother of Today host Savannah Guthrie has been missing since January 31, when she is believed to have been abducted from her home in Tucson, Arizona.

“Boy, it’s so crazy. It’s so bad,” Trump said of the situation before commenting on some of the details from the investigation, such as how Nancy’s pacemaker was disconnected the morning of her disappearance.

From 2020:
Hours before the US death toll from Covid-19 surpassed 200,000, President Donald Trump was again downplaying the risks of the disease.

At a campaign rally in Ohio on Monday, Trump said coronavirus “affects elderly people, elderly people with heart problems and other problems. If they have other problems, that’s what it really affects. That’s it.”

Trump briefly paused before adding, “It affects virtually nobody.”
