'We are doing things to help in that regard America will again and soon be open for business,' Trump said, 'a lot sooner than the three or four months that somebody was suggesting.'

President Donald Trump said Monday during a White House coronavirus task force meeting that American businesses should be back up and going in a shorter time span than originally indicated.

"I'm not looking at months, I'll tell you that," Trump added later."We can't keep it closed for years, okay? [Coronavirus] is going away." "Congress must demonstrate the same bipartisanship again and join together and pass the Senate bill as written and avoid playing any more partisan games," Trump said."They have to get together and just stop with the partisan politics. It must go quickly. They don't really have a choice. They must make a deal. This should not be a time for political agendas but rather a time for focusing solely and squarely on the needs of the American people."Monday.

What a Duckhead $&? He's meant to help and encouragement the people of USA, not ignore what the medical experts are saying and print many people at risk or possibly dying... Maybe he's only interested in his girls and hotels being open. What a sick puppy :(

If we all return to work We will accelerate the point of no return 20,000 new cases per day starting tomorrow ...

I think I saw that same speech while watching Jaws

Trump is utterly confused & baffled. He has no idea what to do. His Presidency has been toast for a long time but he is deluded enough to believe that if he says the quarantine restrictions be lifted at the height of the epidemic, that will help his reelection. Maniacal. Psycho.

🤡🤡🤡

Can’t have those working class slaves on the shelf for long, the 1% can’t afford to lose their 3rd string Ferrari and Oceanside beach house.

Wall Street demands a sacrifice!

PROFIT before LIVES....GOOD ONE🤮🤮👎

Bowing at the altar of mammon.

The woman to his left in the video is blinking way too much and it's very distracting.

gopsaysletyoudie

Unfit Trump! Dump him!

Lol

that will certainly make the stock market drop. Knowing thousands more will die will make investors get out of USA market & put their money into a sensible market country

He said we would have plentiful tast kits 10 days ago and we had the cure a few days ago. Why are we listening to him

theapprenticepresident

as soon as got its resolution

He’s going to get so many people killed

That’s funny, you have shut it down since day one.

Er, unless of course when Mr. Trump decides to shut government down, to get his way?

He is taking this risk, because at the end if it fails, he is good at blaming others.

'Open for business' ...with people dying every minute and states, medical facilities left to 'fend for themselves'. Shameful, sickening, disgusting, reprehensible. Heartless, soulless evil being with not an ounce of care for another human soul.

He should shutdown communist party of democrats.

Trump, GOP , and his voters/supporters are a threat to our nation and the future of the human race. 🤷

Well Florida never closed since our pathetic governor is trying to impress you like a school girl’s first crush 🙄🙄🙄

Did he not shut it down himself, more than once, in a tantrum?

And if anyone knows a thing about shutting down it's donny bankruptcy.

Damn right. We didnt shut down over Swine flu. Aids, H1N1.

Why? how? does he say it like its a good thing? Anyone who knows what is coming knows the nation should have been on a vigilant shutdown weeks ago! Businesses that haven't shut down by now are risking lives that are not theirs for $$$. You vote for it!

Trump is not equipped to deal with this....

I will put my money on God!

And you’ll be killing more people Americans by the way!

So, how would realDonaldTrump know. He's never built squat. Lost his inherited fortune while bilking the actual contractors and people who build shit he slaps his name on.

He can't promise that!

A lot of dead citizens but open. Stock market 10k dow here we come. Karma is going to bite your Orange ass.

Stop broadcasting his Reality show. It’s a friggen crisis, Networks.

Awesome, is this before half the American populations tests positive? How ‘bout we figure out exactly how bad this is going to get first!?

What an idiot! Business? Lives are at stake and not one word to say everyone be safe and those dealing with the virus, personally or someone you know, he stands with you and the priority is THE PEOPLE first! He isn't a doctor and acts like his negative status means no big deal.

Lead the way DT.....come on down, quit hiding behind your insecurities.

Showing how out of touch he is with this crisis. Only when one of his own dies, he might figure it out.

This man wasn’t built for presindency

realDonaldTrump TrumpLiesAmericansDie TrumpIsTheVirus DemsAreTheCure

Well it is

That's fine and well but who will have money and I value life we wont be leaving the house yet.

Somebody take him to an insane assailant!

Trump has been so inconsistent with his messaging about the coronavirus that I’m strongly hesitant to resume my life as normal when he says everything is okay because he may change his mind the next day! I’m listening to doctors with a good track record, not him.

In DEMOCRACY, SHUTTIN' DOWN needs t'B VOLUNTARY? As does STARTIN' UP AGAIN? Too much POLITICS foldin' into d'PROCESS? I say LET EACH DECIDE fer OURSELVES WHO WE TRUST? Warrant d'END, ain't gonna B d'SWAMP o/WASHINGTON, D.C. roast us fer dinner NO MORE?!!😷😷😷 ENUFF ALREADY.😎

But but but, you yourself were more than happy to shut the government down before. What makes you so sure that you are sooooo business savy when you have failed at multiple business ventures.

Hell no

He has been so inconsistent with his messaging about the coronavirus that I’m strongly hesitant to resume my life as normal when he says everything is okay because he may change his mind the next day! I’m listening to doctors with a good track record, not him.

This should happen when he gives his next bumbling, mumbling presser cause he's GOT TO GO PERIOD...ijs

First you eliminate the factor that forced the shutdown. That is not done by talking nonsense.

It’s time to call it. He can’t lead. The pretense he can might actually kill some of us.

Stop this danger

Here’s Trump’s plan for the US economy vs the COVIDー19 pandemic.

Doomed.

He also said it would be like a miracle and one day it’d be gone. He also said the market would be fine. He also said we’d only have a couple cases. I hope we’re open for business and done with corona soon. But I’d let an expert tell you when we’ll be back in business.

Reality differs

Greed is what got US here, and greed isn't what's going to get US out of it.

plaguepresident thenewgreatdepression Trumpdemic GOPgovernmentshutdown

So the community will do the President’s job and solve the pandemic while being “open for business” as soon as possible ... great leadership 🙄

Did you see how hard it was for him to thank the people of America; UPS workers, FEDEX, truckers, all of America! He had to read it. It's exactly what Peter Alexander asked of him two days ago.

😤😡👊⚡

I think US Need real president how does not lie about the reality he should say in the beginning that it’s serious issue please stay home we need all of support keep saying today or tomorrow and make fun about China it’s not joke it’s our love one life you have time to control it

The blood will solely be on trumps hands.

so everyone that seems to be sitting fine with a job and a decent sized bank account don't seem to get that there are many people out of work with little to no money. They live paycheck to paycheck and need medicine, food and other supplies. So its not just about wall street.

Looks like our cities & states are going to have to govern themselves. Businesses in my home state are literally closing on their own...to protect each other & the public.

He’s in denial .. it’s so obvious.. he’s scared and has no answers

Bankrupt leads country into bankruptcy.

His businesses were built to be shut down. Change my mind.

Gyptsea1962 I guess he finally discovered he can’t just go bankrupt and start all over again like he has so many times before.

Let me translate: Trump says American lives are expendable cause $$$ TrumpLiesAmericansDie

It wasn’t built to be DESTROYED by The Apprentice President either.

I am sure the governors of most states will not allow that.

HA HA HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA.

Is this because his shitty hotels are closed?

Trump's feeble promises and unwillingness to act to protect Americans is more fatal than the virus.

You know, I new that the zombie apocalypse would happen and I new trump would be the cause, I’m getting a crossbow and start practicing loading super fast like the guy on walking dead

If the GOP wasn't afraid of this sociopath, they would remove him before millions die.

Amen

Idiot!! Doesn’t he understand that it WILL be in every cirner and needs a NATIONAL response!! Dead and sick people cant contribute to the economy- PERIOD!!
