President Trump and former Vice President Joe Biden spoke over the phone Monday afternoon about the coronavirus crisis, Fox News has learned, in a rare conversation between the two likely nominees for president in November. During the White House coronavirus task force press briefing in the evening, the president confirmed that he spoke to Biden over the phone earlier in the day. "Vice President Biden and President Trump had a good call," Bedingfield said in a statement to Fox News. The call comes after Fox News first reported last week that Biden offered to have a phone call with Trump directly to discuss a strategy to combat the virus. The source told Fox News that the Biden campaign reached out to the White House Monday to set up the call, which took place Monday afternoon.
