With President Trump and his coronavirus task force, including VP Mike Pence and doctors Birx and Fauci, presenting a plan for the staged re-openings of state economies, you just knew some Democrats would be trying to slam on the brakes.
That’s where Rep. Adam Schiff came in:
There’s no way to safely reopen without massive testing.
Yet we’re barely testing more people this week than last. And hospitals continue to report serious bottlenecks.
If Trump ignores the experts and forces a premature reopening,
Even more Americans will die.

How long would it take for Schiff to be satisfied that the economy could get back to firing on all cylinders again? Probably not before the first Tuesday in November:
He so badly wants to drag this out to hurt Trump in November.
Russia failed.
Impeachment failed.
This is his last hope to keep Trump from winning again.But at YOUR expense this time. https://t.co/IkOoIrIk4K

Of course he does

Correct.
The Dems moving the goalposts from “flatten the curve” to “everybody must be tested before we can reopen anything!!” is a blatantly transparent electoral strategy, not a safety or medical call.

Schiff couldn’t be more transparent (in his own unintentional way) if he tried.
This is where "flattening the curve" to prevent overwhelming to healthcare system (which did not happen) morphs subtly into a different motive…. https://t.co/Fp3qutdQvn

your personal investment in keeping the US shut down is alarming

This from the recalcitrant barnacle whose legislative body is dragging their feet so that even MORE people will be out of work today.
It is inherent upon EVERY ONE of us to remember this behavior and reward appropriately at the polls this fall.

There are hospitals literally laying off employees because they are EMPTY, you insufferable prick. https://t.co/kzKSHCxLuL

You lie!
4/10 Total US Tests: 2.35m
4/17 Total US Tests: 3.41mThat’s a 45.5% increase in a single week.
The US leads the world in tests run, equal to Russia and Germany combined. Stop lying to the Am people. pic.twitter.com/qjiyVQ6YAU

No doubt Schiff has zero interest in the reality of the situation.
