President Trump on Tuesday appeared on Fox News for a town hall to discuss his administration’s ongoing efforts to combat the Coronavirus.
Trump said he would likely open the country back up by Easter (April 12).
“I would love to have [the country] open by Easter,” Trump said. “It’s such an important day for other reasons.”

Hemmer seemed a bit surprised by Trump’s timeline, saying, “That would be a great American resurrection, two and a half weeks from now.”
President Trump has repeatedly tweeted ‘the cure cannot be worse than the problem’ and has suggested Americans will be out of quarantine and back to work soon.
Our people want to return to work. They will practice Social Distancing and all else, and Seniors will be watched over protectively & lovingly. We can do two things together. THE CURE CANNOT BE WORSE (by far) THAN THE PROBLEM! Congress MUST ACT NOW. We will come back strong!
