President Trump had only one thing on his public agenda Thursday, a media briefing on the coronavirus pandemic scheduled for 5 p.m. ET, and it failed to mention a call with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
From the White House:
Today, President Donald J. Trump spoke with President Vladimir Putin of Russia.

While Trump has claimed in the past two days that he is updated on the activities of the coronavirus task force daily, including having debriefs by Drs. Fauci and Birx, no such items have appeared on his schedule this week.
