The idiot press has been screaming at us for weeks that we must “listen to the experts!”
So Trump trots an expert out there (Dr. Birx) with a detailed set of data explaining why it’s safe to reopen.
And they reject it on delivery.

You’re right about Birx’s detailed graphical data in the first half of her talk. She actually explained the different types and purposes of testing. She does continue to think the press can follow her on these explanations, and that they care to. Big mistake.
There should have been a executive summary slide up front to stomp on the false narrative of “Testing Testing Oh My Word, not enough testing! We’re all gonna die. Trump is doing a horrible job on testing.”
She thinks she’s presenting to the experts at CDC.
Not well done. It’s nice to be all detailed and sciency and stuff, but the press don’t care.
Too bad she had to wind up and linger on two graphs about hot spots. I guarantee you the memes and soundbites from the enemedia will come from those last two graphs
