Today, President Trump showed the American people what “resolute action” to combat the coronavirus looks like.
He took “unprecedented actions” with Canada and Mexico to restrict non-essential travel across our northern and southern borders.
As Dr. Fauci explained, this move is “important” for the public health of America.
Furthermore, President Trump invoked the Defense Production Act and announced that he was waiving all interest on federal student loans, not enforcing standardized tests, and he was suspending student loan payments for 60 days.

NOTE: The American people have coalesced behind President Trump’s leadership: more than half of all Americans approve of the job that the President is doing in managing the coronavirus crisis.
NEW: In new ABC News/Ipsos poll, 55% of Americans approve of the president's management of the crisis, compared to 43% who disapprove. Trump’s approval on this issue is up from last week, when the numbers were nearly reversed. https://t.co/uQ49FmMiDD

But as today’s press conference showed, instead of prioritizing getting accurate information to the American people, some reporters used the opportunity to engage in self-indulgent gotcha questions, trying to pit members of the administration against each other.
And as Secretary Pompeo said, “All we ask is that you listen to what we say, and report it accurately.”
"I think I've worn them out, Mr. President"

Reporters think they are beyond reproach. They aren't
Good for Secretary Pompeo for pushing back against fake news
