In his first official press briefing on the coronavirus pandemic since April, President Trump on Tuesday admitted that the public health crisis is likely to worsen as cases surge across the country and asked all Americans to wear masks in public.
While Trump hailed his administrations response to the pandemic and the work toward developing a vaccine, he bluntly disclosed what many Americans already know: that the crisis is likely to spread more before it can be contained.
It will get worse before it gets better, Trump said of the pandemic that has infected close to 4 million Americans. Thats something I dont like saying but it is.
Trumps comments come after weeks where he either downplayed the virus continued spread or focused on other issues from unrest over racial injustice in American cities to the removal of Confederate statues despite cases of COVID-19 surging, particularly, in parts of the south and southwest.
Noting the concerns among many of his supporters that facial coverings impinge on their personal freedoms, Trump pleaded with Americans to wear masks out in public to help prevent the spread of the coronavirus.
Were asking everybody when youre not able to socially distance to wear a mask, Trump said.

Yep, just like his AG William Barr.
I want America back.
Wrong governor for Alabama. It is Kay Ivey.
I’m stunned. Is this really true that Trump is saying that??? Or is this more b.s. from the lying media?
Trump can’t be taking in all this bull sh#t. The political pressure of this upcoming election must be getting to him.
Pry for Trump.
The patriots won’t make the individual sacrifices to make that happen. And the left knows it. They waited for the country to become sufficiently neutered for this to take place.
He leads on every issue, this one is no exception. But he always makes it clear this was an attack on the US by China.
He’s duped, he’s compromised and or he’s simply controlled opposition.
He approved this crap in April that is now being rolled out in Arkansas: https://www.fox13memphis.com/news/local/arkansas-national-guard-transporting-covid-19-patients-isolation-facility/M6QOEDIC4JEGLKO7L2AN4BVYDQ/
DT loses points with me on this but I still cant wait for November.

He hasnt been duped, but like it or not there are thousands of more positive tests (yes, I know in some cases its BS) but it is out there. And its an election year and we have many Karens and Chads. Lethal? Not in 99.8% of cases, but nonetheless, there are people getting it and there are people confused as hell. Hes saying wear it if you want to...hes not mandating or suggesting. I chose not to...others manly chose to wear one. Thats freedom.
An internal hepa filter eliminates any chance
of virus escaping through exhaust. Assorted
external intake filters are available for various
conditions.
Have you left your house since March? If yes, youre not imprisoned.
If that is your prediction, you may not be far off.
Thank you for that information. The prospect of mandated vaccines is frightening. I feel for the little children that are already in their line of fire just to get in school
That would be very funny.
It will get worse before it gets better,
well, isn’t that just peachy keen; Joe Biden agrees, I’m sure...
“like it or not there are thousands of more positive tests”
Uh ... it’s because there are more tests being done. There were probably exactly the same two months ago, but those people hadn’t been tested yet. If they stopped all testing, there would be fewer positive tests.
There’s that saying, “You don’t know what you don’t know.”
