    To break down the politics: 1) NY City & other major American cities need to be under Europe-style lockdown now 2) the only way they can do that is if they get a guarantee from the Federal gov't to pay for this 3) Dems have to pressure Trump to support this, loudlyhttps://twitter.com/ASlavitt/status/1239045736442060801 …

    Doctors and officials in Italy blame growth on people ignoring warnings to socially isolate. Major cities in the US are 10 days behind Italy and still have a chance to mitigate this. 2/

        What do cities need the federal government to pay for? In San Jose, my Starbucks had a sign on the door today saying that the city has banned more than 35 people from being there at once. That reminder certainly made me want to get in and out fast. I won't be back tomorrow.

        Almost every state has an outbreak. Republicans and Democrats live in every state. Don’t be a jerk. Be an American.
