Donald Trump held a press conference at the Rose Garden where he declared a national emergency amid the coronavirus outbreak.

“I am officially declaring a national emergency. Two very big words. The action I am taking will open up access to up to $50 billion of very important and a large amount of money for states and territories and localities in our shared fight against the disease,” he said.

The POTUS also said that HHS Secretary Alex Azar will immediately waive provisions of applicable laws and regulations to give healthcare providers and other professionals maximum flexibility to respond to the coronavirus and care for patients.

Melania Trump’s husband also showed signs that he’s finally listening to the advice of healthcare professionals when he elbow bumped Bruce Greenstein instead of shaking each other’s hands.

Twitter user @MysterySolvent uploaded a video of the president’s recent press conference, and it’s evident that he can’t read or speak. In fact, the POTUS sniffed nonstop, and he also tried catching his breath multiple times.

“The Trump presidency is over! He can’t read or speak!” the Twitter user captioned the video.

“Even… as reading his prepared for a third-grader script… Trump reads Number two… He doesn’t even know he isn’t supposed to read the actual numbers from the listed items out loud. His [expletive] is deafening,” Twitter user @jcjax13 said.

“HAHAHA, I laugh every time I watch this. It’s really our president!! He’s so [expletive]” Twitter user @MysterySolvent wrote.

“We are screwed #Trumpdemic #TrumpVirus #UNFIT,” Twitter user @rescueallthedog said.

“I think he’s got the COVID-19 virus. Sophie Trudeau was at a conference in the UK and tested positive. Donnie is holding rallies, dinners, and fundraisers and is shaking hands left and right and is acting like he’s fine,” Twitter user @SarahJKS77 said.

“He can’t read or speak, it’s true. But sadly, the [expletive] show isn’t over,” Twitter user @telf63 said.

“American politics is a joke in itself, Biden can’t spell his own name don’t know what makes people think he will be any more impressive, at least he knows how to be a politician,” Twitter user @gcp2000 said.
