‘There Will Be Death’

President Trump warned that America’s “toughest week” is coming up, predicting “there will be death” as the number of Covid-19 cases surges in the days ahead, Politico reports.

He also announced that New York would be getting “about a thousand military people — nurses, doctors, lots of other people because that’s what they need.”

But Trump also signaled his growing impatience with the stringent social distancing measures states had put in place around the country, which have sent the economy spiraling rapidly downward.

Said Trump: “We have to open our country again. We have to open our country again. We don’t want to be doing this for months and months and months.”
