This is correct. To a certain extent, the regional efforts by govs boxed Trump in. Reporters still asking questions with “will a state be allowed..” which is strange premise. Fauci now talking about Fall for true testing and antibody capability. 1/
Redfield also talking in future tense “that is what we are going to do.” Ok. Good. Realism. This plan has no deadlines so that is also good. But it’s not what Trump wants. He talks about open spaces. Parties. Fun. No responsibility. Ok! 2/
Science team being pretty real. Trump falling into “preparedness paradox” thinking that progress means it was all overkill. 3/
Trump, as I’ve mentioned before, talks about the pandemic as being over. He’s really into Wyoming. Ok! Parties in Wyoming. Ok! He can be that president.
For rest of us, testing testing testing. 4/4. @cnn @cnntonight later.
