'The man is delusional, and has no basis in his thinking in any type of science,' Sen. Tammy Duckworth tells TheView.

"I just rely on what doctors say. They say it's going to go," he said."That doesn't mean this year. Doesn't mean it's going to be gone, frankly by the fall or after the fall, but eventually it's going to go away. The question is will we need a vaccine? At some point it will probably go away by itself."

"Very soon. I mean, really very soon," Trump said."There is nobody close to us in the world and we certainly have done a great job on testing. Testing is a big -- is a very big important function. By the way, some people consider it more important than others, to be honest with you, but testing certainly is a very important function and we have prevailed."

"We could go back to work when there is widespread and free testing -- when anyone who needs a test can get it -- that's when we can start reopening the economy," she said on Tuesday, adding that in other countries that have started to reopen, that's been the approach taken.
