President Donald Trump said Saturday that he's considering a short-term quarantine of New York state, New Jersey, and parts of Connecticut, as cases of coronavirus continue to rise.
"We're thinking about certain things. Some people would like to see New York quarantined because it's a hotspot. ... We might not have to do it, but there's a possibility that sometime today we'll do a quarantine, short-term, two weeks on New York. Probably New Jersey, certain parts of Connecticut," he told reporters as he departed the White House."I'd rather not do it, but we may need it," the President said.
We are not listening to you POTUS anymore. Look at the mess it got us into.
Is it just me or it's too late for quarantine !? 😔😷
Yes that will be okay for now
Mr. Donald Trump I will not vote for. You need to quarantine all the Hotspot..to stop the Coronavirus!!
DO IT NOW!!!
Militarize the zone.
'I don't even know what that means'. LOL
Needs to be the whole country.ny and northern states got bad and they all started coming to thuer summer houses and were not stopped!!!nor self quarantined!!!now our state is gonna bebad.lock the fucking country down for at least 2 weeks except first responders!!!
So CNN, why are you not covering the Presidents news conferences? The Navy Hospital ship news conference? this is exactly why CNN has the lowest ratings, even lower then the home shopping channel. Your supposed to show the news, unbiased, in its entirety. FAKE NEWS is your motto.
He is trying to get there attention and tell them to stay home. Do your job stay home.
When's this ”HOAX” going to level off?
It’s a critical time for personal responsibility. Stay home. Some are ignoring mandates and saying it’s not my problem. Put egos aside. We’re in this together and need to act like it. Sacrifice is an act of love. It will save lives and get our world on the road to recovery.
Hope he has all the logistics in place for all the New Yorkers needs!!
Haaaaaaaaa, for real though
Practice what you preach and stay in White House And shut up in place.
USA people need freedom not inhuman quarantine!!!
Oh no!!! Thought he says it would just vanish.... Like a miracle!!!
纽约是皿煮党的票仓，所以死多少川建国都不会心痛的，可怜的纽约人还不懂，指望建国同志救你们啊
Wtf are considering for? Just do it!
Lock it down, full military support, marshall law will only work.
I would just fence the entire area off and keep the idiots locked up in their hellholes
Considering? Yo Americans you are screwed with this guy.... 👀
Didn't he say, everything is petty much under control? :/
L Noo
Lj
Why does trump keep giving these deadlines/timeframes as if it’s a research paper due for class.
We would request you to do complete lock down of the country to save people fm Covid 19
A third of the country is on lockdown, including the upper Northeast, for two weeks and he’s just now “considering it.” Buddy doesn’t have a clue what’s going on in his own backyard
Short term nothing. Tell the truth
Absolutely should have been done , the lackadaisical attitude of NYC , illegals uneducated, overpopulated area that shows America the TRUE IMMIGRATION DEBATE BUT CNN ,NBC WILL STILL FAVOR Dem Obama welcome all including China who is the Criminal of the WORLD
Hello Your fear of corona will kill you Learn from your children how to eliminate corona The Corona virus is already weak, but fear is gaining strength and fear arising from media scare The evidence is that 99% of children are not affected by corona Although its solution
Cuomo for president
We need to stop all travel into and out of these areas. Needs to be controlled.
What is the point of the travel restrictions? Covid is in every state it’s going to escalate and play out. Making New Yorkers stay in NY is not going to change that fact.
The whole country should be on temporary lockdown
declaration of war? Trump is trying to contain the virus... What is Cuomo mumbling about, what a fool!
I can't believe a fool like him is the Governor of NY...
Governor Cuomo of New York, a true example of an American idiot!
Florida wouldn’t have to worry about it if they had closed their beaches... they wanted the money though. Now that spring break is over they whine!
You guys are being dramatic to antagonize Trump v Cuomo. Trump said 'quarantine'...Cuomo said 'lockdown'. You conflated terms. Now for headline are quoting 'act of war'. News is news, but you're sensationalizing. Let the story happen...dont make it happen. On air now. Why
That's yall guy
The data you post is inaccurate ! every single day there are HUGE discrepancies with the daily updated data from WHO. This is the data from WHO, updated at 6pm(Central Europe time ) March 28, 2020 Do countries report first to YOU ? Seriously? get data from WHO. Shame on you
Trump is an idiot by the time he issues a country wide lockdown there will be thousands of deaths
Should of thought of that weeks ago.
Trump's too late. The Equine left the barn a while back.
What about Pennsylvania ?
realDonaldTrump stay your Narcissistic self out of New York! This is not about you! U want to place yourself in the middle to appear as if you have been apart of Coumo excellent leadership! U Jealous of real leaders! The Governors! TrumpPissPoorLeader
How about a total quarantine, with no communication, for Trump !!!
Dufus
Too late as they have already been in lockdown for weeks
GOD TRULY BLESS YOU GUYS AND GALS ,FACEBOOK IS NOW BLOCKING ANY NEGITIVE MESSAGE ABOUT TRUMP MEANING WE'RE NOW RIDING A 30 % PERCENT DICTATORSHIP TYPE COUNTRY ,WE MUST AT ALL COST ELIMINATE HIS ASS,
CuomoForPresident
We are suffering from corona viruses and Yaman rebel fight us
I know this sounds crazy, but it looks like there might not be an overarching strategy in play here. Thrashing around, haphazardly addressing whatever catches your attention, doesn’t even qualify as a tactic!
Few days ago he has said that this will happen only over his dead body
So like in The Division videogame ?
MAY GOD BLESS AMERICAN
But only until Easter. Can’t pack the churches by staying at home
Do it now!
Trump is the worst president ever
This guy is either delusional or a real criminal!! 😨
Just think if the spread of corona virus gets much worse and there is a shortage of hospital beds, the state governors (inclusding New York) could grab the Trump hotels and turn them into makeshift hospitals.
Why stop there? New York (and California) should secede from the union and leave the red states bankrupt.
Trump doesn’t have the legal power to do that.
Wow still only considering. How many deaths does it take ?
Buzzzz! Thanks for playing Trumpie. Beyond the powers granted to you in the constitution.
Please investigate the wearing of masks. Something is not right with the information given to the public. China, Singapore, Taiwan, South Korea have contained the virus through forcing everyone to wear a mask and we are told not to
realtrump last, Mefloquine + penicillin(Russia) and for prophilaxys. OTHER hydroxychroquine and Ezythromycin(Francia). Other, chloroquine(China)
A couple of days ago, we were all going to church on Easter. His ready-fire-aim “responses” are all over the map.
Well, once he makes a decision, whichever it is, you will release an article blaming him for making the wrong one. You probably already have both versions ready.
You would have thought Cuomo would have done that weeks ago. Why does everything have to be done by the feds.
He talked to GOP FL. GOV who doesn't want Floridians to STAY AT HOME. He wants them to work. So, quarantine 3 states instead. POSPOTUS has no idea how to be anything but political ally or enemy.
Umm, could someone please sedate the sh_t out of that C-List Pennywise impersonator?
Now New Yorkers want to run to the south, they should stay in New York until this over, its the best city in the world so why leave
Please tell me this is fake news. No one can determine the longevity of this.
MSM before you repeat everything realDonaldTrump Trump GOP says, can you also reference which article of law that gives him the authority to do.
I say we rename Covid_19 to Covid_45 in honor of IMPOTUS45
But he'll reconsider if they say something nice about him, thank him for the job he is doing, wash his feet, kiss his ring and bend the knee. Sarcasm
Yes! Stop coming to the south to spread. We are working hard to contain here so we can get back to work. Utter selfishness
Good bcuz if they don’t know how to keep themselves safe. Someone has to make sure that they are safe.
The government has done a great job of incremental shut downs that people accept. This is horse sh*ite
A few of the States ranked by new cases in last 24 hours... New York +6,056 New Jersey +2,299 Louisiana +569 Florida +565 Pennsylvania +533 Indiana+251 We need a nation wide shelter in pace order, and better data reporting.
Quarantine the entire country you fing hump
Yes, piecemeal quarantine, enacted at this late stage, will be highly effective. Not. Meanwhile, red states run riot and act as if nothing is happening. Super.
Can you imagine being in New York right now, so sick that you can barely take your next shallow breath, hanging on to any vestige of hope that help will come to you in the greatest land of all. Your organs as if a blow torch is taken to them. Alone, scared & you hear Trump on TV.
NO NO NO ITS TOO SOON MR DUMB DRUNK TRUNK LETS WAIT TILL DEATHS REACH TO 50.000 PANIC, MAAYHEM, LAWLESSNESS, RIOTS, WILL START.
Please take a couple of weeks more and open Wall Street
Jesus, the longer this tool waits the more people get infected and die. The madness needs to stop. The incompetence grows bigger by the day!
I think there's a typo in the last sentence... 'As of Saturday morning, New York had 519 reported deaths due to coronavirus and 4,635 reported cases.' John's Hopkins data is showing more like 46,000 cases in New York state. ...Forgot a zero maybe?
WARNING TO EVERYONE!! DO NOT GET THE VACCINE FOR THE CORONA VIRUS ONCE THEY HAVE ONE. IT'S NOT GOING TO AGREE WITH EVERYONE'S BODY. EVERYONE IS DIFFERENT. DON'T ALLOW THE DEEP STATE TO SCARE YOU. Hillary is also behind the spread of this virus. Hillary=Deep State.
Short term? 🙄
CNN = TOOLS
CNN = FAKE NEWS
WHY ARE NOT SHOWING THE PREZ LIVE SPEECH
Let the states handle this.
CorruptMedia cnn keeping their viewers uninformed by not showing realDonaldTrump speaking in Norfolk at the Naval Hospital Comfort. EnemyOfThePeople
Wow, what a man-baby. 'they used mean words so I'm going to lock them down more!'
To late they have been spreading the virus through New England going to there second homes
Anything to stop the flow!
Sadly we do need it and not just there, everywhere. We know the only way you get it is by someone else & if your not near anyone else then you can’t get it, the government is afraid to make this decision because people will act out but it needs to be done, sadly.
CNN is lying, he said possibly getting certain states that are NOT hotspots back to work if his task force agrees. New York is definitely a hotspot. Stop being sheep and use your minds not what CNN tells you to think.
Boy wish we could consider a muzzle for this dope
MORON
I said it years ago.
Now we will have a flood of asymptomatic people fleeing NY in the next 12 hours just like we had a flood coming back to the US and infecting each other from Europe a couple of weeks ago. Real smart....
What about Easter shopping?
Trump lives adolescent underwear advertisements
Does this mean spots that aren't hot like OrangeCountyEOC can come off lockdown? the virus has killed 1 person out of 3 million out here and flu season is almost over. Get ready for the wave of civil suits for economic loss.
But maybe Trump is all but maybe. He doesn’t have a clue
As if any sensible person would ever consider any claim from him is reliable
Please indicate which expert told you this that you listened to. I'm curious not only if he's able to do it but which Fox News anchor told him to do so.
Well thats the problem when u have more a businessman and less a president! More then 1800 deaths in USA is not a joke! Entire lockdown is a least u must do!
HOT SPOTS, not the entire states. Damn you guys take a PIECE of a quote and run with it. Not even the full quote. Damn.
Do it for the people President Trump!! That idiot Cuomo is in way over his head.
Let him start with the Oval.
Considering? Yeah quarantine sucks but if it saves the general population at least a bit that’s a good thing. The US has more confirmed cases then Italy or China, shouldn’t that raise a red flag?
Would this involve the ordering of military to prevent anyone going in or out of restricted area?
Lol goooood luck with that. What is he going to do? Build a wall?
Not sure he can do that, much less enforce it.
New York health official dismissed covid-19 as fake news and told people to congregate.
DONALD DONKEY RUMP TRUMP!!!! IS NOT STRAIGHT KNOW IT!!!🐎🦊🐴🐴🐴🐎🐴🐎🐎🐴🐴🐴🐎🐴🐎
Lockcoronadown COVID19 Stop this virus POTUS! BillGates CDC Qurantine
ANDREW CUOMO for president!!! Thank you! From Arizona!!
Aren't we already doing this though
Someone should tell him he does not have that authority.
Trump considers a lot of things... the media will never learn
He has no powers to do so and they already are quarantined, no thanks to him. PresidentCuomo is taking care of his city the way a leader should.
Build a wall.
Lockdown the whole country. He should have done it weeks ago.
He can even consider 1 day quarantine if he wants to but it's not up to him, fortunately.
And said he spoke to Cuomo about it. Cuomo denied speaking to him about this quarantine. “I don’t even know what that means,” Cuomo said.
Too late
4635 cases?
is that legal?
Short term? Consider all you want. NY will know when it is safe to reopen.
Is Easter dinner still on Donald?
If i were the Governor of New York I would tell Trump to stick it where the sun does not shine... Its more apparent than ever that the Economy is more important than the lives of New Yorkers
'... and once the evil king learned the true power of martial law, he set to tightening the screws ...'
The economic policy for coronavirus in Japan is not cash benefits but gift certificates such as wagyu beef tickets. What do you think of this policy from an American perspective?
I think he should also strongly consider a lockdown of his mouth, and twitter account
Under what authority
Stop 'considering' and act. NY entails 7% of the GLOBAL (yes, GLOBAL) confirmed coronavirus cases.
How about a quarantine on people from NYC infecting rural northern counties that have 0 community born cases? Where is Cuomo on this?
Yah, but this is CNN saying he said this. Must be fake news, right mental midgets?
TrumpVirus TrumpLiedPeopleDied TrumpLiesAboutCoronavirus WorstPresidentEver
Day late and a dollar short. He is playing catch up with governors and mayors who have already been acting.
