Trump Dragged For Saying Schools Should Re-Open Because The Virus 'Will Go Away Like Things Go Away'
Fox News

Apparently learning nothing from the national spike in cases that began in late June, President Donald Trump continues to press for the reopening of schools during an interview on Fox News, saying:

"My view is the school's should open. This thing's going away. It will go away like things go away."

During his appearance on Fox & Friends, the President couldn't have made it clearer how casually he thinks of the pandemic which has killed more than 150 thousand Americans.


At one point he said:

"If a teacher's in a certain age group I think they shouldn't be going in. Probably they're gonna have to wait 'til the thing goes by. They'll have to wait. It will go by."


The President still seems fundamentally unable to grasp the idea that the virus will not simply go away on its own over time.

Of course, he's a little less willing to risk the life of his own child.


Many people online believe Trump understands the science of the situation, but is simply willing to put Americans lives at risk.



If there's one thing that will absolutely not help Trump come November, it's yet another major wave of the virus.



Many voters have learned during Trump's time in office that his actions are usually meant to benefit only himself.

The President's school reopening plan would be borderline incoherent even if it was well-intentioned.


Health officials continue to issue warnings that the only way to quickly return to normalcy is to take drastic measures like wide closures, ubiquitous testing, and mask mandates as soon as possible.

GOP Senator Faces MAGA Backlash Over Plan To Sell Millions Of Acres Of Public Land

Utah Republican Senator Mike Lee is facing harsh criticism—including from Team MAGA—over his proposal to sell off millions of acres of public land in the American West owned by the Bureau of Land Management and the U.S. Forest Service to supposedly create more affordable housing.

Lee claimed in his proposal that there is an "extensive process for interested parties like States and local governments to nominate land for disposal to meet housing and community needs," noting that it specifically exempts national parks, monuments, and federally designated wilderness areas from potential land sales.

Trump Ripped For Complaining That Americans Get 'Too Many' Federal Holidays Off Work

While it was ultimately former President Joe Biden who established Juneteenth as a federal holiday, President Donald Trump—who once campaigned on that promise—took to Truth Social on Juneteenth to whine about the number of "non-working holidays" Americans get, claiming that it costs businesses "billions of dollars."

Juneteenth is derived from June 19, 1865, when Union troops led by General Gordon Granger arrived in Galveston, Texas, and declared that all enslaved African Americans in the state were free.
