I hope that these Governors use their own discretion on when to ease the restrictions with the Coronavirus Trump doesn't have Americans safety at heart only wants to keep his billionaires friends happy.
We are NOT following YOUR guidelines trump. You have proven beyond measure that you are incompetent and inadequate, void of empathy, compassion and intelligence. We will listen to the medical and scientist professionals. You only care about the stock market not American lives.
realDonaldTrump More chaos and confusion. Spare us, please. Just stop. Go play golf!
realDonaldTrump is putting Out New Guidelines for Governors to follow in Controlling the Public while the CORONAVIRUS Continues . NEWS FLASH: NOBODY IS LISTENING TO YOU...TRUMP
GovAndyBeshear is over here like
TheView Taking credit again. I got news for you: Hospital personnel & first responders stepped up to the plate well before you did. They make sacrifices you & your kids can’t even dream about.
TheView Trump 2020 baby! Trump has shown true leadership in the face of adversity, not only handling the virus but also putting up with massive wave of negative press day in and day out.
Most informative is the long list of spiteful blather directed at POTUS for the leadership he has shown as compared to the utter lack of same from BarackObama throughout 2009 and 2010.
What is he doing about the Governor of Mississippi?
Oh hell no.
I see this Trump but it's mine and the crazy people won't let me spend it
SenSchumer
We know who didn't.
Who wrote this?
TheView Sorry Trump you have no authority over states. TG for governors🙏🏻
TheView Glad i live in a Dem state.
realDonaldTrump just wants to head to Florida and golf again. He does not care about the American people.
TheView This makes no sense with cases rising all over. Trying to separate counties according to reported data is not an accurate view. We don’t even know how many are carriers or are infected.
TheView I want to know just how much he contributed to this letter. A grown up wrote this.
Johnny come lately waltzing in like anyone needs to listen to you now. Typical of the man who when the results improve will say it’s due to him and nobody else. I won’t be surprised when he claims he discovered the vaccine.
F*ck the president. We will trust our governors to do the right thing to protect the people over the economy.
Trumps supposed guidelines are useless. He lies and liars can’t be trusted. I will always trust myself before I do anything trump recommends.
He is crazy! There hasn't been enough testing and people who need to be tested can't because there aren't enough out there. Dear God in Heaven help us all!
All it is guidelines states can do as they see fit
One test is pretty worthless. You could be exposed and infected 5 minutes later. CoronaVirusUpdate
YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME
Really?
How are they even talking about relaxing the measures when we haven't done a national lockdown yet
Total BS
Pelosi never read Obamacare bill and went ahead and passed it. What taking the her so long To pass the bill to help the American people now is it politics again
Hopefully the governors will ignore him and base their decisions on science.
Economy economy economy...how about American LIVES
Oh, how nice. Extra toilet paper for the governors' offices.
wsteaks That's strange, what does he think each state is different?
It’s. NOT UP TO HIM
Haven’t they already set their respective plans in place and executing them? What would have happened if they had waited for Trumps guidelines, which are obviously still not sorted. He can’t even agree with his own task force
Im not sending my kids back 2 school till its safe and its not safe an anyone with half of a Brain can see this . Trumps mad cause longer this goes on worse he looks .... That ship sailed already Trumps unfit 2 lead
TrumpIsAMurderer pass it on NotDying4WallStreet
No one trusts an impeached bum who delayed for 2 months calling it a hoax. Didn't prepare. Blames everybody else but himself. But what else would u expect from the Antichrist?
'Working to publish new guidelines' like they worked to provide drive thru testing in the Wal-Mart parking lots!? TrumpIsIncompetent
So we are going to do county-level measures based on 'risk' assessments? As if people don't constantly cross county lines in their work/personal life? This isn't going to work.
His signature is as a tight as his self righteous arsehole.
'Relaxing?' He should give his empty head a shake 🤐🤬
Viruses don't give a shit about county lines. This administration lives in La La land.
Are states and city to believe or trust trump in 'guidelines' when they ignore facts, the science, the experts? Clearly, Trump only listen to billionaires and Fox and trump's reelection campaign!
No confidence for the buffoon in the White House. Ignore this.
All he cares about is his $$$$$
Useless. First of all, equality. Everyone has the equal right to be tested.
So rediculous. There are 1000 total Coronavirus deaths in the entire US this year. There are already over 20,000 deaths this flu season in the US.
Yah, right. TraitorTrump can't even speak in coherent sentences let alone write that!
TrumpPlague sucks, and realDonaldTrump is going to get us all killed if the GOP doesn't get him under control ASAP. This isn't funny.
But... are we anywhere close to having 'robust surveillance testing which will allow us to monitor the spread of the virus' It's VITAL we don't open up ANYTHING until AFTER the surveillance testing is in place AND the results are back. I don't see that happening by Easter.
ignore trump put him in a padded cell
The problem is so many Americans are truly the dumbest people on earth. Mostly cowards and only give a shit about themselves
The federal government seeks to use “data-driven criteria,' derived in part from 'robust surveillance testing,' to “help classify counties with respect to continued risks posed by the virus,' the president says.
