When is the President going to address the Nation

I don’t like the fact so far it’s only a tweet. Yes I’m still upset I want to hear him say something.

He needs to test Negative a couple of times or address the Nation from Delaware with the seal in front of him.

Yes, from the Oval would be more appropriate. But he is not out of the woods yet. Plus, he will have some choice words to cut CF#45 down a few notches while he is at it.

That will give repubs all sorts of ammunition.

They have done nothing to deserve the trust to disseminate such news.
To me, it feels like a huge loss of the integrity of presidential communications.

It’s in the letter.

It’s hard not to get emotional just thinking about it.
