Pence: “We don’t want the guidance from the CDC to be the reason schools don’t open up.”

Redfield: CDC guidance not intended as "rationale to keep schools closed."

Azar: "Nobody should hide behind CDC’s guidance as a way to not reopen schools."

Trump:

I disagree with @CDCgov on their very tough & expensive guidelines for opening schools. While they want them open, they are asking schools to do very impractical things. I will be meeting with them!!!

Trump will take care of that pesky CDC report tomorrow, in a sleight-of-hand move that would make Mussolini proud.

2. Why is he tweeting about it. Why doesn't he just talk to the CDC.

He has to drag millions of people into his difference of opinion with his own agencies. If he is in charge, he should work it out with his people. why does he need to tweet it to the whole world? It’s a stupid and crazy way to run a government.
