Trump, at his daily briefing that started later and ran longer than Beshear's, said “If some states refuse to open, I’d like to see that person run for election.”
Beshear has encouraged drive-in services, as long as they follow social-distancing rules, but Louisville Mayor Greg Fischer and Hopkins County Judge-Executive Jack Whitaker have banned even drive-in services.
The governor said the law would create an obstacle for Kentuckians trying to vote, especially during the coronavirus pandemic when offices that provide ID cards are closed to in-person traffic.
Health experts say it's too early to change course, but Trump adopted the line of thought in an interview Tuesday with Fox News, saying he “would love to have the country opened up, and just raring to go, by Easter."
