From Town Hall Meeting today
"You can destroy a country this way by closing it down," says @POTUS in @FoxNews interview, denying he's been taking heat for suggesting opening the economy back up while the #coronavirus pandemic roars.

"We lose thousands and thousands of people every year to the flu. We don't turn the country off," adds @POTUS.
Claim by @POTUS that @TheDemocrats had inserted "windmills" in the $2 trillion #coronavirus response stimulus bill.
"I understand things very quickly. But we can socially distance ourselves and go to work," says @POTUS.
"Your going to lose people to the flu but you'll lose more people" if there's a recession or depression, including because of "massive suicides," according to @POTUS.
Closing the country could cause US to drop "20 or 25 points of GDP," adds @POTUS.
"Somehow the word got out this is the thing we're supposed to be doing," says @POTUS. "We have to go back to work much sooner than people thought."
"We did not screw up and I don't think CDC screw up either," replies @POTUS on lack of adequate #coronavirus testing kits. "We broke that system and we've created a new system that we're doing unbelievably big numbers."
"He shouldn't be talking about us," @POTUS says of @NYGovCuomo, claiming the governor turned down a chance in 2016 to purchase ventilators for a pandemic.
"I would like to have the country opened up and just raring to go by Easter (April 12)," says @POTUS.
As Dr. Deborah Birx was speaking about New York cases possibly spiking due to people coming back from Asia after the holidays, @POTUS interjects: “Do you blame the governor for that?"
"This cure is worse than the problem," reiterates @POTUS when questioned by @BillHemmer about whether he really believes that 19 days from now it's going to be safe for Americans to go back to work.
If people avoid shaking hands, keep their distance from each and wash hands frequently, then it'll be OK for people to return to the workplace soon, according to @POTUS.
"You can't compare this to 1918 when close to a 100 million people died" and those who contracted the influenza "had a 50-50 chance of dying," says @POTUS.
Some doctors likely want the country locked up "for two years," according to @POTUS, who again suggests that depressed people who face losing their businesses are likely to kill themselves in numbers larger than those who will die of #COVID19.
