Trump swing state allies break with White House on Covid-19

Phoenix Mayor Kate Gallego, a Democrat, distanced herself from the event in a statement Monday.

Across the state, at least 80 percent of intensive care unit beds have been occupied since June 14. As of Monday, 1,412 ICU beds — 84 percent — were in use. “The message is just stick with the basic program that we’ve advised really from the beginning,” he said. “It’s still important to maintain the appropriate physical distance. It’s very important to exercise good hygiene — wash your hands, do things like that. It makes a difference. And then it’s also important … when you can’t socially distance and keep that 6 feet, wearing the face mask can help reduce transmission.

The surging caseloads in those regions threaten to throttle the Trump administration’s push to reopen the country, raising serious questions about the White House strategy of deferring to the states on health restrictions and other measures as Americans begin to emerge from months of lockdowns. It could also hurt the president’s reelection bid — presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden is leading Trump or only narrowly trailing him in recent polling in all three states.

The state health systems can be overflooded and this is the worst scenario. If it happens those governors can not away with it.

DeSantis, tell the truth!

Would be a shame if a church full of drumpf supporters in a state with a huge covid rate were to catch it.........

Wow! Really? We are finally realizing the Boundaries of the Trump Sycophants & enablers...death.

Anything in the world is bad ok if you eat to much fruits is bad if you in the sun is bad in you inside the house is bad anything with excess is bad .. take this virus Easy follow rules and stop make ppl worried

Totally wrong to frame this as 'breaking' with Trump. Sounds like these 'allies' have guts. They don't. Experts warned about this weeks ago and these governors didn't care. Mike Dewine has guts. The other GOP governors don't and now their states are going to pay the price.

REMEMBER when those Smug Governors, Senators, and Reps said WE AREN’T NEW YORK CITY...looks like they are starting to.

Expecting DeSantis to defy Trump is like expecting Reek to stand up to Ramsay Bolton.

And hospitalizations & Deaths are going DOWN.

1 by 1

This is what they wanted. The economy needed human sacrifices and the GOP was more than willing to offer up Americans to die for it.
