That makes no sense. An opening of a military field hospital in the middle of a pandemic, which the President attends, is NOT going to be a "public gathering".
There's no functional reason for him to go, except to act as a figurehead of a ceremony. There's much additional risk going vs not going and no purpose. If I was a doctor, I'd tell him it's unwise. It's a hospital. Required personnel only.
I agree. However, in this video he said "secret service" and not medical personnel. Interestingly, he said almost the exact same thing again a few days later at a briefing. I think it's safe to say that it's strongly assumable that he's telling us that he is at risk of assissination in New York.
The point on the curve we're at today is actually much different than where it was days ago. It's gonna explode until mid April and should be back down to where it is now by early May.
Anyone have any idea what those obvious reasons are?
Because it’s full of people sick with corona and GEOTUS is the most important man walking the earth
It's the opening. There isn't any sick people there. It's the military people who set it up. Or do you know different?
ah good point...maybe just because NYC is a shithole with the worst cases in America.
This one really isn't rocket science. Public gatherings are banned. An "opening" is a public gathering.

He did the Norfolk USS Mercy just a few days ago. This is similar.

Conditions change and the advice changes with it.
So, you don't know anything. Thanks.
I assume he's joking because that's where they held the Hillary "victory party".
Kek, that's what I thought, it was seriously funny when he said it and I hope that's what he really meant.
Traveling to an area of high community spread isn't prudent for POTUS. Or just about anyone not involved in current operations imo.
This seems plausible. But, does the Secret Service also include medical doctors who make decisions for him?
Yes. https://youtu.be/_jj-GAPtXS4?t=2161
Ronny Jackson is not a member of the Secret Service. He is Chief Medical Advisor to the President.
