Schumer: Immigration Suspension Is ‘Another Diversion’ Like W.H.O. Defunding

On Tuesday’s broadcast of CNN’s “New Day,” Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) stated that we shouldn’t get sidetracked by “diversions” like President Trump’s immigration suspension or his defunding of the World Health Organization.

Schumer said, “I think it’s another diversion. The agencies don’t even know what it is. No one knows what it is. Last — yesterday, or the day before, we were talking about W.H.O. I think the president ought to stop these diversions. What we really need is a focus on testing, a focus on contact tracing, so that we can open up again. … I don’t think we should be lost in diversions that have little to do with getting the testing and the opening up of America that we need.”
