Getting all of America to ignore the COVID-19 pandemic and stop self-quarantining by Easter? Keep dreaming, says Massachusetts Gov. Charlie Baker (R).
On Friday, the Republican governor threw cold water on President Donald Trump’s hopes of having Americans back at work by Easter (which falls on April 12) despite the fact that coronavirus outbreak has shown no sign of stopping.
As Baker was holding a presser on the coronavirus in Boston, a reporter brought up how Trump has been lobbying for the end of social distancing measures by that deadline.
“Do you see any hope of that in Massachusetts?” the journalist asked.
The Republican governor had a fairly blunt response.
“The information we’re getting from public health experts and from health care providers here in Massachusetts is that…yeah, no,” Baker said, shaking his head. “We’re not going to be up and running by Easter, no.”
Watch the governor below:
Why hasn’t tramp’s cabinet removed him? He is too unbalanced and ill equipped to be our leader now. Isn’t that apparent?
The Governors are in charge. Trump can influence a few but not the majority. If there are large gatherings on Easter Sunday, blame the rise in the number of cases and deaths on Trump.
And Jared Kushner. I know, Trump is ultimately responsible, but Kushner is the evil elf whispering in his ear.
Cultists do not turn on the leader of the cult. That’s why it’s called a “cult.”
Funny how having to confront the reality of a deadly virus can focus the mind.
