Anxious to spur an economic recovery without risking lives, President Donald Trump on Sunday insisted that you can satisfy both see states gradually lift lockdowns while also protecting people from the coronavirus pandemic that has killed more than 60,000 Americans.
The president, fielding questions from Americans in a virtual town hall from the Lincoln Memorial, acknowledged valid fears on both sides of the issue. Some people are worried about getting sick; others are reeling from lost jobs and livelihoods.
But while Trump increased his projection for the total U.S. death total to 80,000 or 90,000 up by more than 20,000 fatalities from what he had suggested just a few weeks ago he struck a note of urgency to restart the nations economy, declaring we have to reopen our country.
We have to get it back open safely but as quickly as possible, Trump said.

Trump has never been a details person. His specialty has always been the big picture. But now details are required and he may need to adapt his schtick to what's needed now.
i watched President Trump answer the questions... he was open and sometimes emotional.. its refreshing. they have said his ways are elementary... but watch him on action... he is a dynamic leader who makes mincemeat of any politician.
For those who cant get passed his open and honest way of handling his job.. they are missing the accomplishments this man is bringing about for our country. they are missing the fact Trump has more intelligence and abilities than any of them.
He is DJT and hes not going to change to please those who live life putting on a face for the public. Hes too busy getting things done... and hes the most conservative President EVER!
Transparency bothers the elite crowd...we who voted for him know we found the one who we can trust ...i think he scares the left so much they dont know how to handle honesty.. they look at him and try to figure him out..
Hes a man on a mission.. God bless our President.
“I wish PAs Tommie the Commie Wolf would have been on that list.”
LIBERATE WISCONSIN!
I so agree.
Yes.
He needs to get out here in flyover country and experience first-hand the vitriol that exists for Tony Fauci.
Absolutely.
It’s already worked out, this coronavirus BS is all but done and no one could’ve done a better job than Trump. Pay attention.
Yes, it is and if he loses the election, we lose the country. We will not get the country back without actions no one wants to contemplate.
All of the gov’ts projections have been wrong. Very wrong!
The result is nearly 30 million people losing their jobs, their savings, their homes while tinpot dictators withhold lifesaving medicine and order you around like slaves.
No OR?
You hope
No one asked about social media censorship
No one asked about how to force states to open
No one asked about the overreach
What did we get - valuable question time burned up
1) Some biddy scolding him about his demeanor
2) Some POC dope asked about the disparate
impact on POC
3) Another dope crying about his China business
getting socked in the teeth by tariffs
But, his sick burn on Biden was awesome
Totally agree.
Not only has President Trump been able to smoke the vermin out of their holes, hes got them smoking themselves out of their own holes.
