President Donald Trump, on Sunday, said schools throughout the United States Of America should be opened ‘ASAP’ .
Igbere TV recalls that most schools in the US shutdown following the outbreak of the deadly Coronavirus pandemic in order to curtail the spread.
However, on Sunday, Trump’s tweet was an apparent reaction to similar comments from Fox News’ Steve Hilton on his program “The Next Revolution.” Trump tagged Hilton and Fox News in a tweet Sunday where he mentioned reopening schools “ASAP.”
“Schools in our country should be opened ASAP. Much very good information now available. @SteveHiltonx @FoxNews,” Trump wrote.
Hilton had demanded on his show the need to, “Get on with it and reopen schools now before you do even more needless damage.”
He said using masks to stop the virus’ spread seems appropriate, but added that measures like temperature checks seem to be “totally pointless.” He also called certain social distancing rules as “totally arbitrary.”
“Only one or two people allowed in an elevator at one time, good luck trying to reopen New York on that,” he said.
