Reopening Schools

[CJD]

Regardless of whether we open schools or not, the President should have no say in the matter. Trump is severely overreaching with his demands and is only doing so because he knows that without the schools opening, the country on a whole can not meaningfully re-open. If the country cannot re-open, then the economy won't recover. If the economy doesn't recover, he'll almost certainly be voted out of office. Therefore, you can't actually take him (or any politician) as being truthful and responsible with their expectations for re-opening schools because it's 100% based on political gain.

Public health officials should be the ones to decide when it is safe to re-open schools.
