Trump says the White House guidelines on social distancing will remain in place until April 30.
-- Trump just spent 5 minutes talking about how great his ratings are for these daily briefings. He cited news reports -- several times -- that the briefings get higher ratings than"Monday Night Football" or"The Bachelor." He seems to think the ratings are a function of his popularity. Maybe it's just us, but we're thinking people are watching the briefings because they're scared for their lives and the lives of their families and friends.
Even more sobering ... Trump says the peak of death rates for the country will actually hit in two weeks and he doesn't want to declare victory prematurely.
