I think it's great he is opening the churches instead of spreading fear like the Democrats want.Most people are smart enough to know how to stay safe

And what, watch stats rise in 30 days? No thanx!

Be like Cuomo - LEAD! God’s everywhere; 🛑 playing politics with God. Review the Bible. God speaks of his dwelling place. Fortunately, some of us have great pastors with creative minds. They continue to preach the Good News; save souls, help people. Wise up. RESIGN.

Hey Trump I hope you will be the first one in one of those churches and I hope it is packed!

yeah i would pray too, if i had a president like YOU!! realDonaldTrump

Don’t cough in church

Let’s just hope that these people are smart and wise enough to not take their certain demise bait!

Trump puts Politics in Everything From a Pandemic that the Whole World is Fighting to Expert Doctors State Governors Now God I Don’t Recall Jesus being a Republican

well the mosques never closed....so who gives a shit

Lawless Republicans keep pushing Trump's Nazi regime while SS Thugs like Mitch keep the white nationalist minority support stirred up. What's left of the democracy will vote this fascist regime out.

trump needs their votes real bad!

Lol you don’t have authority but ok yes anyone foolish enough to think God via a man? Want you to risk your life to keep his offering plate full ? God is Omni present so you might rethink what/who your following ?

Seen Fox polls , has to gin up religious voters for political reasons , working on holding kkkampain rallies need phoney right wing evangelicals ! Be a Hero SaveALifeMaskUp ImpeachBARR and certainly InvestigatePompeo so we can *start* to EndGopCorruption and retain Democ..

That's because Trump doesn't go to church nor believes in the gospel.

If it speaks like an authoritarian, walks like an authoritarian....... Scotus America is on life support and needs u to heal us! Make the call and soon ! Is this person above the law? America needs to know before election! Light a fire under it please!

All trump followers should congregate with each other and go to trump rallies without masks. And To take lots of hydrochloraquine. I fully support their right to choose!

There is a separation of church and state, Bingo.

People get all uptight if a church is open, but are perfectly fine with Lowes or Home Depot being packed. Guess those lawn ornaments and potting soil is just so important

They are essential for some but not for many. For sure Trump isn’t essential.

Apparently, u can’t catch Covid-19 in Walmart, grocery stores, Lowe’s, and Home Depot. But you can damn sure catch it in a church. 🙄 I agree with Trump.

This from the man who doesn’t go to church

As long as this includes all Churches, Synagogues, Temples, Mosques, etc... then that is fair. Most people have enough common sense to know to worship at home. To those who feel they must attend, off you go. May the odds be ever in your favour.

He didn't want to take any responsibility in closing things down. He shouldn't get a say in when things open. He's really dumb. It's his base that is primarily the 'religious' type. If they have COVID running rampant thought their numbers, what do you think is going to happen?

So many still think that The Church is a building. Oh well...

I think Fords Theater is more essential.

No more than a fucking abortion clinic!
