      *Trump = 4,248,327 Infected, 78,009 Today*
      *Trump Death Cult = 148,490 1,141 Today*

  1. They straight out trying to put kids in school with no way of knowing what will happen. Teacher’s have always been under paid!!! I have known since an early age that teacher’s have spent there own money on school supplies!!!!

    2. In my state cost was cut yes ago for supplies and sports program. I live in a democrat city. Go figure.

    3. Claude Boone 70k in a nursing home these are not nursing homes. This is a flu season at this point. If this virus spreads so easy how when someone in a family has it and you live with 5 other family members they don’t have it?

      Breaking News:
      A 35-year-old roofer died in early June, after being struck by lightning. The medical examiner listed COVID-19 among the probable causes of death.

  2. Person, woman, man, camera, TV… Person, woman, man, camera, TV… Person, woman, man, camera, TV… Person, woman, man, camera, TV…

  3. t’rump constantly saying “We have to re-open the schools” isn’t actually a plan for how to re-open schools safely. It’s like saying the way we’re going to get rid of the Corona is by “getting rid of the Corona.” Brilliant thinking there by the Commander in Bleach! 😅😂🤣

  4. Yesterday In Belgium a 3 year old died of Covid. So it simply is a lie that Corona is not dangerous for all children!!!!

    1. The 3 year old girl suffered from several severe associated diseases, according to a statement released by health authorities.

    3. gce2308 Elwood the kids had health problems so it sucks that they died. Your illness is mental by how you think and that TDS might just be fatal for you

  5. But Republicans cancel the Republican National Committee convention but they’re willing to risk the lives of your kids

    1. So much drama for nothing. There is no danger to the kids going back to school. This is all drama by the radical left wing fake news media.

  6. I heard it’s a hoax so many times that I actually started thinking about it, then having doubts, then my cousin got sick and may pass, and my neighbor down the street died. My sister’s uncle in-law has gotten it twice. So much death…

    1. First I heard about this new virus outbreak was back in December.

      The press statement from Beijing that “it is all fine now and everthing has been sorted out and stopped” told me that everything most definitely was not “fine” and, given that it had gotten SO serious the taciturn chinese govt had been forced to make public statement, it had not all been sorted out.

      And then the weeks and months since then have been a slow-mo car crash as various governments utterly failed to respond.

  7. Why coudnt she be in charge of covid she would tell trump to move off the podium.she studied sars ebola and zika

    1. Anyone talking that bluntly to the orange man-baby would not stay in the job long enough to get anything done.

  8. Until they have a reliable testing and tracing option up and working then I will not send my kids to school.

  9. *Fed govt and states should be preparing ‘Distanced Learning’ for kids and families . . Not bullying people back into school classrooms during the Coronvirus pandemic.*

  10. Laurie Garrett is brilliant and spot on with her assessment of this pandemic and has been so from the beginning. Trump is completely and totally incompetent and irresponsible. How any thinking human being can believe he can be trusted with the health of our children is mind boggling.

  11. “Chop! Chop! Slaves- I mean my fellow Americans! Forget your kids and get back to work, I want my profit margins NOW!”

    Get rid of the monster jfc this is sick

  12. MLB players being tested every other day. Something like this needs to happen with the schools.maybe pool testing? I donot see anyone talking about testing criteria

  13. Teachers Administrators janitors school bus drivers the matrons who attend the children all at risk.Lets not forget the kids bringing this scourge home.

  14. In Europe they have tested, traced and set up extra hand washing stations. The US gov is shamefully failing its citizens.

    1. Lol… only an uneducated fool would draw that conclusion from this interview. Of course, Fox News isnt allowing comments on many of their vids so you have to be stupid somewhere….

  15. Trump and his minions know that only 149 thousand Americans have died from covid 19 – there’s lots of Americans left.

  16. Breaking News:
    A 35-year-old roofer died in early June, after being struck by lightning. The medical examiner listed COVID-19 among the probable causes of death.
