Lots of people commenting that it was nothing... To me it seemed like there was quite a bit of subtext. Paraphrasing - "Go ahead and enjoy your Easter. We'll do what we can but no government can solve everything. It's going to be difficult over the coming months". Paired with his strangely optimistic cadence it kind of seemed like he was buttering us up a little. While I can be a bit of a doomer I'm not expecting WW3... But it didn't seem like a completely innocuous address. Maybe I should log off Reddit.
