This is the worst briefing in a while. Trump's once again indicating he wants to open the economy, repeating "we want to get back soon."

Meanwhile, several states have still not issued stay at home orders. The longer they refuse, the longer it'll take for any state to "open up." https://twitter.com/atrupar/status/1246535562779136001

After warning this week will be among the worst, Trump repeats that he's eager to open up the economy soon dozens of times.

Clearly, Trump has grown impatient with his public health officials, instead listening to those who value the economy over science. https://twitter.com/atrupar/status/1246539578351267841

Trump repeats "The cure cannot be worse than the problem itself."

The cure being social distancing and staying home, resulting in economic pain.

The problem being a global pandemic that's projected to KILL 100k-240k Americans, if we do everything right. https://twitter.com/atrupar/status/1246541319549390848
