Trump trashes CDC school-reopening guidelines -- then CDC updates them

I don't understand...I just don't understand the power this guy has not only over people but entire organizations! Who will stand for the citizens of America?

(CNN)After President Donald Trump tweeted Wednesday that he disagreed with US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention guidelines for safely reopening schools because they are "very tough" and "expensive," the agency said it would issue new recommendations next week.

The move came as the Trump administration makes a concerted push for schools to reopen by the fall, even as cases surge in some parts of the country.

It is beyond embarrassing how their reputation has been decimated under Trump. Totally destroyed.
