President Trump on Monday said he will resume giving regular coronavirus briefings this week, reviving a practice that is controversial among some aides as infections surge across the United States.

Trump told reporters in the Oval Office he would deliver a briefing at 5 p.m. on Tuesday. It would mark his first time participating in a coronavirus briefing since late April.

He should not the thousands of counties across the country that have hardly any impact and if it weren't for Cuomo and Dem Governors killing tens of thousands in nursing homes the total number of deaths would be well under 100,000, slight more than a bad flu year. Here's my county stats, feel free to use them Mr. President: https://scphs.maps.arcgis.com/apps/opsdashboard/index.html#/a27a4678ee04436599141f0168a64637

I’m kind of surprised that he stopped them. These were the closest things he had to political rallies for a long while!

For the president’s consideration, he might wish to not be looking down at his notes while talking, just talk the facts including what his role is compared to the governors roles, get support from the doctors and his economic advisors and not get into fights with the press. And he might wish to keep the press briefing short.

Yep, no press questions, tell them to submit in writing and they would get answers as soon as Biden does an in person real interview with a real reporter.

Whenever Trump speaks about Covid, he has this deer in the headlights look to me. If he’s going to have these briefings just to praise Fauci and Birx to the hilt, he should just pass. Im no fan of these covid presses where he talks nonstop about respirators.

I would love to see him bring in true professionals who can prove this is not as deadly as the Fake New’s is trying to spin it.

Yep.

My county of 24,000? Thirty-seven cases. NO DEATHS, NO hospitalizations; everyone recovered at home. No infections in our nursing homes.

WHY is my county not fully open? WHY is our Walmart, as of today, DEMANDING I wear a mask to shop there? (I won’t shop there.)

Absolute INSANITY and I hope he states as much! Grrrrr!

Foolsi should not be present, unless he is wearing the gayest looking yellow paper cuck muzzle in the background with his flapping gums tightly SHUT.

SAme thing going on here in my area. The best info says we can ramp down & what do these idiots do?...Ramping up!!! I go to Walmart as it’s so much cheaper than my other sources here & don’t feel like I have much of a choice; being on a fixed income. What’s wrong with these idiots? Do they all rely on CNN for their news? Rush has a lot to say on this this morning. I am hoping the people doing this are severely punished when it’s over & more of the truth comes out.

Yup. Those briefings were a circus. In retrospect, even more so since all the reports and numbers they were throwing around were (and still are) all BS. Mayors and governors crying wolf... media hype, conjecture, and the administration’s response to smoke and mirrors. Talk about the Keystone Cops! Birx and Fauci = Abbott and Costello.
