The White House will hold another coronavirus task force briefing today at 11:45 a.m. ET. The news conference comes just as the state of California issued a new shelter-in-place mandate that urges residents to stay home and not leave for anything but “essentials.”
This is a companion discussion topic for the original entry at https://talkingpointsmemo.com/?p=1298681
To put this into perspective:
The “info” Trump gives will be self serving
There will be misleading statements
This is a substitute for a Trump Rally
The amount of days he will be able to pull this off is based on the constraints of a geometrically-increasing virus spread
The bobble-heads behind Trump are afraid for their lives

No, this is the holy shit one. He’s basically shutting the borders, and likely will announce a national stay-in-place in a few minutes.
