White House to wind down coronavirus task force as Trump administration shifts focus to reopening country.

response toward an economic reopening of the country, multiple senior officials told ABC News.

"Mike and the task force have done a great job, but we’re looking at a little bit of a different form, and that form is safety and opening, and we’ll have a different group, probably, set up for that," Trump said. The president did not elaborate on what the"different group" may look like but said -- even with the health focused group winding down -- top experts will continue to be involved in White House decision-making.

"Well because we can’t keep our country closed for the next five years, you can say there will be a recurrence and there might be, you know, some doctors, most doctors will say that will happen, and it’ll be a flame and we’re going to put out the flame," Trump said.

Smart move.

How do you shift focus AWAY from an ongoing pandemic? You really mean to tell us that you can't walk and chew gum at the same time? You can't focus on the economy AND saving American lives? How incompetent can this president get?

All these people commenting must not work or haven’t lost their jobs. Thank you POTUS !!! Let’s get back to work. Trump2020

Ok.....so who is supposed to be the adult in the room telling Trump he’s wrong?

That was a task force? I thought it was a clown show

This is not the flu Trump! A resurgent pandemic will overwhelm our hospitals and clinics leaving the infected to die in the hallways, waiting rooms, streets, subways, trains, homes. Bring out your dead! Our President is a fool.

There is a cuckoo in the White House, it's ruining the country.

Glad to hear the pandemic is over!

What Coronavirus task force?

Do we even know what this “task force” did other than bullshit campaign rallies on the taxpayers’ dime? Someone hire Fauci and form a REAL task force in the private sector!!! This nightmare is NOT over by a long shot! 🤬🤯😷 AnyoneButTrump2020

shuu_kiratu Rire...

Plain & very simple..you don’t get USA economy open then may not be USA to open up..And negative interest rates may well be prelude & play into hands of socialists, China, some worlds wealthiest & others want digital currency & collapse US dollar..Don’t be naive about virus.!

Trump should wind-up himself for good! Such an incapable leader. 👎🏻Always try to push blame to others except himself, such a loser. Instead of focusing to save as much lives as he can, he only cares about reopening country! What a shame! 👊

As the death toll continues to climb... Makes sense right? 😒

He has made every single wrong choice since the beginning of this crisis.

FLURP?

This has been hard on everyone. We are ready to start living our lives, and stop living in fear. Open up America.

When this backfires his Ass better not be on Twitter.

Trump Administration wants everybody to feel like it's over with even though all the numbers are going up.

Trump = Genocide to Americans

Thank you President Trump. This lockdown is killing us. Our economy has been destroyed.

It’s like beginning the parade after game 3 when you still more games to play.

The Flim-Flam man continues to meddle and muddle and muck it up. I still can't believe he said that neither the Mob, the Cartels or the Hell's Angels could ever touch him. The CIA knew that in kindergarten!

Trump suddenly loses interest in human pain and suffering.. He was Never interested anyway November is coming Trump can't stop November from coming Good will prevail over the cruel depravity of trump and Trumpublicans BIDEN2020

US coronavirus deaths: Mar. 5: 12 deaths Apr. 5: 9,643 deaths May 5: 71,043 deaths US coronavirus cases: Mar. 5: 227 cases Apr. 5: 337,620 cases May 5: 1,203,892 cases ALL on realDonaldTrump’s delayed response (and current negligence).

Campaign reelection task force didn't work. Now maybe we can focus on the virus?

70K Americans have died and the number is climbing. Trump and his GOP enablers should all be removed from office immediately for their incompetence.

Insanity. The death tolls only go up!

Somebody do this meme again but with the monopoly guy and Martin Shkreli

Nursing homes linked to half of coronavirus deaths

Mind bogglingly incompetent

Wait ... is it over? Did I miss something!?
