This is so irresponsible and dangerous.

1. Hey, Trump!

You know that 3rd son of yours? Barron?

Send him to school.

Otherwise, shut the fuck up.

2. A physician commenting on schools opening in his county,

with high schoolers sitting 3 feet from each other breathing each others' air for hours, predicted that his schools would not remain open.

7. To even suggest the possibility that schools will remain open is the height of stupidity.

Of course they'll close, because they never should have opened. This is what we do when we have a PANDEMIC that kills people. We close off transmissibility. This doesn't take an epidemiologist's expertise to grasp the facts. It takes a cup of coffee, but only if you're sleep deprived. Otherwise, you don't need the coffee. If we really want to stop the dying, we control the virus FIRST. DUH.

11. +1000. Duh, duh, duh, dead. It will take tragedy to close them.

3. It's like he's doing Sarah Cooper routine now. "Going away. It's almost going away"

I heard and saw Sarah doing that line as he said it.

21. Every time he talks now I see Sarah Cooper.

4. He was asked what his PLAN was to reopen schools safely.

His answer was, “In my view schools should reopen [and he said this repeatedly].” Then he said, “This thing is going away. It will go away like things go away, and my view is that schools should be open.”

In other words, he has NO PLAN for reopening schools safely.

5. Cost equals dead people! You moron

Fox enablers should be shamed daily once Trump loses the election.

He would never get away with this on the other two networks, not with covid.

[Blue Owl]

6. Like... the Titanic, for example

[Faux pas]

8. He'll

be gone long before the virus will. Fornicate him and the caballo he rode in on.

[spanone]

9. And how many children will die until it goes away mr. 'president'?

[NRaleighLiberal]

10. why won't he go away???

[Sherman A1]

13. Precisely

A question that should be asked at the next press conference.

[Initech]

12. Someone needs to take Fox News away from him.

[Jamastiene]

14. No, we will finally see the real spikes when they do that.

We will look at all of these phased "spikes" happening this summer as a joke once the spikes start really happening. All schools are not going to open the same way. Some red states will probably throw all the kids into the classrooms together as usual and watch the shit his the fan then.

I hate that fucker more every nanosecond.

[world wide wally]

15. Americans need to protect their kids FROM the President of the United States.

Let that sink in for a minute.

[Kota]

16. If its going away, lets just wait to send kids back.

[Voltaire2]

17. It's going away like Twitler is going away

By deliberate concerted and if necessary forceful action by the people of this country.

[tanyev]

18. Like that trick Hope does where she jingles some keys in front of his face,

then swings her arm behind her back and THE KEYS DISAPPEAR! Wow! It happens every time!

[smirkymonkey]

19. What is frustrating is that I keep hearing people talk about the risk of the

children themselves getting sick and dying of Covid if they go back to school, but that is only one issue, and probably not even the most important one, since they are less likely to die from it than adults or people with compromised immune systems (which could also be other children).

The other issue is that these children can still contract the virus and even be asymptomatic and still be disease vectors. Which means they go back to their families and transmit the disease to parents, grandparents and anyone else in the community that they come in contact with. If those parents are out in the workplace or society - especially if they are not practicing social distancing and other safety measures - they then become spreaders of the virus and so on.

Most adults cannot seem to comply with the suggestions for preventing the transmission of this virus to others. How on earth can they expect children to do it? It's going to be a disaster.

20. PARENTS don't want to open schools bc it will hurt PEOPLE

I hope that "thing" goes away very soon
