President Donald Trump's top government experts now say that the pandemic is entering a new phase as it invades the rural heartland -- and they can't say how long it will last.
With millions of kids nowhere near going back to school and the economy reeling
from a 32.9% annualized contraction in the second quarter, the months
ahead are stretching into what looks like an endless crisis as Trump
tweets "Make America Great Again" and spends his weekends on the golf course.
Top
administration officials in recent days have repeatedly delivered
information and warnings that directly contradict Trump's upbeat
messaging on Friday on the virus: "We'll get rid of it, we'll beat it,
and it will be soon."
Despite the worsening crisis, there is
no sign of a new administration approach, or evidence of an effort to
set up the massive testing and tracing nationwide program that experts
say is needed to finally get a handle on the crisis.
