"Endanger children and teachers or else!"

President Donald Trump put the nation's schools on notice Wednesday that he may cut off their funding if they don't reopen their classrooms this fall.

One day after he promised to put "a lot of pressure" on schools to reopen, Trump served up a new threat on Twitter.

[quote]"In Germany, Denmark, Norway, Sweden and many other countries, SCHOOLS ARE OPEN WITH NO PROBLEMS," he wrote. "The Dems think it would be bad for them politically if U.S. schools open before the November Election, but is important for the children & families. May cut off funding if not open!"[/quote]

It’s a complicated situation. But also, makes no sense to threaten people’s lives...
I do think there are still Partial options that should be considered including online school...until a vaccine can be produced for each county...

@Mindful most schools will find a way to be open with testing, cohort isolation and contact tracing.

There is zero need for threats.

There is also zero need to react to idle threats.
