Sen. Chris Murphy accused President Donald Trump of undermining his own experts after members of the federal coronavirus task force offered a dire forecast for national infection rates on Tuesday.

The option of reopening safely while following prevention guidelines is"why it's so impossible for us to watch the experts who testified today say all the right things, and then have the President on a daily basis undermine them," the Connecticut Democrat told CNN's Anderson Cooper."It's almost as if we have two different federal governments, two parallel governments today," Murphy added.

But Trump has continued to defy health recommendations and has been reluctant to be seen wearing a mask in public. He recently told the Wall Street Journal that masks are"a double-edged sword" and suggested that masks sometimes are being worn as a political statement, rather than a health precaution, to show disapproval of him. Experts say wearing a mask or other face covering could reduce the transmission of Covid-19 by as much as 50%.

The Chinese virus is new so a lot of people are going to be infected, and honestly the sooner people get it and develop an antibody against it the better off they'll be.

I would be surprise if he said anything else.🙄

Trump is holding a very large 4th of July event with no social distancing plans. He said this would disappear like a miracle. We just had a record shattering single day rise of 40,000 new cases. He says people who wear masks are making a statement against him. He is a disaster.

Experts. They Haven’t got a clue. There still Learning. They keep changing the Rules.

Never mind, Trump has filched the whole worlds supply of anti Covid medication , for the next three months. Nice one. Not!

nobody trusts or believes anything a democrat politican has to say, they are LIARS and TRAITORS

I can't believe that americans are so ignorant to believe that Trump cares about their well being

What they fail to understand is the extent to which Trump is the real victim.

But she isn’t properly wearing a mask herself in multiple pictures featured on her House website and social media.

'DHHS etc are saying 'keep your distance, keep things closed until it's safe to reopen, wear masks, and then you have the President undermining them on a daily basis.' ' & still, the protests/riots get swept under the rug as apart of the reason we have spikes. What a clown show.

Why do you play into his game and refer to him as a Democratic senator rather than a concerned senator?

Fauci doesn’t need to be undermined folks… He does it to himself 😂
