Letter to the editor: Fauci, health officials should be running country

Does anyone really believe that this coronavirus will diminish enough by Easter to send people back to work, open churches and let our children go back to school? President Trump seems to.

In my opinion, he never lets facts from his intelligence people and health officials get in his way. I think he only has one agenda in mind: saving his presidency.

I don’t believe he has any empathy for Americans suffering from this virus. His philosophy is “some will survive, and some won’t, just like the flu.” But this is more serious than the flu. This is a national crisis that is continuing to spread.

You’re now seeing how this president reacts to maintaining the confidence and trust of the American people. Someone should quarantine Trump and let Dr. Anthony Fauci and the health officials run the country until this crisis is over.
