Trump wants to reopen the US economy on Easter because he'd like 'packed churches all over our country

President Donald Trump announced on Fox News on Tuesday that he's aiming to scale back social distancing guidelines to fight the coronavirus by Easter.

When asked by Fox News' Bill Hemmer why he chose April 12 as the day to reopen the economy, Trump said it would be great to have "packed churches all over our country" despite experts' warnings that the highly-infectious virus will still be spreading throughout the country

Trump is so stupid he doesn't realize that his base will suffer the most if churches are packed while the coronavirus is still rampant.

He has never given a shit about the church before becoming president.

Trump is a known atheist but he pretend to be a Christian during his election campaign so religious people would vote for him. Apparently it worked. Hopefully it won't work in November.

Trump needs the evangelical vote, and the evangelicals need their tax exempt status.

The people I know at Goodwill say they reopen April 28th.They aren't the management or government though.
In news which most definitely should not come as a surprise, Universal Studios has pushed back its re-opening date in both Hollywood and Orlando from April 1st to April 19th.
I think towns like Willis here should be able to have church unless some case does happen there before the 12th.

Robotpussy, at least you post links to your posts, unlike your idiot pal, dogdump.

However, the chepooka you post and choose to comment on is such trivial nonsense. This is fake news. Just because he targets a date in the future doesn't make it a done deal. These articles you post are nothing more than clickbait for the indoctrinated, which is why you bit, hook, line and sinker. Zero Independent thought. It must be nice getting welfare checks and not having to think about anything, yes?

Find any typos, grammar nazi?
