I don’t underestimate the power of the media, but you cannot deny the truth of what Hume said here.
It appears that Trump is beginning to push to reopen, but he is not moving nearly fast enough for me. Many of the governors fear being blamed for a second outbreak and deaths so they will likely wait another two weeks to see how those states that did start reopening perform. Some of them will drag it out.
I said 6 weeks ago that the media was driving the bus with the doom doctors giving direction and everyone, including Trump, was along for the ride.
We now KNOW, unlike 6 weeks ago, with a high degree of certainty that it is safe for the majority of Americans not in a vulnerable category to return to work. The risks for them are very minimal outside of potentially infecting those who are vulnerable.
This is the only solution that will preserve what is left of the economy.
Completely agree. Trump is underestimating the damage being done to the economy by this slow reopening.
