In Washington, Trump has said that deciding whether to ease recommendations on social distancing might be one of the biggest decisions, if not the biggest one, he’ll have to make.

Pressed on whether the United States has enough medical equipment and whether Trump offers too rosy a picture at his briefings, the president said he believes the country has enough equipment and that he did not enjoy speaking at these press conferences.

The comments from the president came in response to a question from CNN’s Jim Acosta.

These are the saddest conferences I’ve ever had. I don’t like doing them. Why? Because I’m talking about death ... there’s no happy talk Jim. This is the real deal. And I’ve got to make the biggest decision of my life and I’ve only started thinking about that. This is by far the biggest decision of my life.

Trump went on to say the country has enough equipment.

“It’s not ‘no no no’ it’s yes yes yes,’” Trump said.
