美国总统唐纳德·特朗普(Donald Trump)周日表示，尽管卫生官员警告称，如果过早取消社会隔离措施，将会出现第二波冠状病毒疫情，但他认为，一些美国州长在他们所在的州对冠状病毒的限制过于严厉。

特朗普周日讨论了本周在包括密歇根州、俄亥俄州和明尼苏达州在内的一些州走上街头的抗议者，他们要求结束州长为遏制COVID-19的蔓延而实施的呆在家里的措施。总统同情抗议者的担忧，并拒绝在白宫冠状病毒特别工作组新闻发布会上谴责他们的示威活动。

“有些人走得太远，有些州长走得太远。特朗普说:“发生的一些事情可能不太合适。“我认为最终这并不重要，因为我们开始开放我们的州，我认为他们会非常开放。”

有人看到一些抗议者穿着“让美国再次伟大”的服装，手持支持特朗普的标语，呼吁在大流行期间放松冠状病毒措施，扩大自由。在他们的示威游行中，许多人没有遵守白宫的社会距离指导方针，该方针反对10人或10人以上的集会来限制病毒的传播。

“就抗议者而言，你知道，我看到了各种各样的抗议者，”总统说。“我和每个人都在一起。我和每个人都在一起。”

特朗普起初没有说出在他看来在冠状病毒限制方面走得太远的州，但他后来暗示密歇根州州长格雷琴·惠特莫和弗吉尼亚州州长拉尔夫·诺森可能实施了不必要的措施。惠特默和诺森姆都是民主党州长。

“如果你拿密歇根来说，我认为密歇根有些事情是不必要或不合适的，每个人都知道，”总统说。“我认为密歇根州州长——我们相处得很好——但我认为密歇根州州长可能知道这一点。”

新闻周刊联系了惠特莫和诺森姆的办公室进行评论。

特朗普因周五发布的一系列推文遭到民主党和共和党州长的批评，这些推文似乎支持明尼苏达州、密歇根州和弗吉尼亚州的抗议者。

“解放明尼苏达！”特朗普在一条推文中写道。“解放密歇根！”他在另一封信中说。“解放弗吉尼亚！拯救你伟大的第二修正案。它被包围了！”他在第三本书里写道。

马里兰州州长拉里·霍根(右)告诉美国有线电视新闻网，特朗普对示威的鼓励没有“帮助”华盛顿州长杰伊·因斯利告诉美国广播公司新闻，总统“疯狂的咆哮和呼吁人们‘解放’各州也可能导致暴力。”

TRUMP SAYS SOME GOVERNORS HAVE 'GONE TOO FAR' IN IMPOSING CORONAVIRUS RESTRICTIONS

President Donald Trump on Sunday expressed his belief that some U.S. governors have taken coronavirus restrictions too far in their states, despite health officials' warnings of a second wave of the disease if social distancing measures are lifted prematurely.

Trump on Sunday discussed the protesters that took to the streets in some states this week — including Michigan, Ohio and Minnesota — to demand an end to the stay-at-home measures that have been implemented by governors to curb the spread of COVID-19. The president sympathized with the protesters' concerns and declined to denounce their demonstrations during the White House Coronavirus Task Force news conference.

"Some have gone too far, some governors have gone too far. Some of the things that happened are maybe not so appropriate," Trump said. "And I think in the end it's not going to matter because we're starting to open up our states, and I think they're going to open up very well."

Some protesters were seen wearing Make America Great Again apparel and holding pro-Trump signs as they called for coronavirus measures to be relaxed and wider freedoms amid the pandemic. During their demonstrations, many did not adhere to the White House's social distancing guidelines that advised against gatherings of 10 or more people to limit the virus' spread.

"As far as protesters, you know, I see protesters for all sorts of things," the president said. "And I'm with everybody. I'm with everybody."

Trump initially did not name the states that, in his view, have gone too far with their coronavirus restrictions, but he later suggested that Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer and Virginia Governor Ralph Northam may have implemented unnecessary measures. Both Whitmer and Northam are Democratic governors.

"If you take Michigan, there were things in Michigan that I don't think were necessary or appropriate, everyone knows that," the president said. "I think the governor of Michigan — we're getting along very well — but I think the governor of Michigan probably knows that."

Newsweek reached out to the offices of Whitmer and Northam for comment.

Trump has faced criticism from Democratic and Republican governors over a series of tweets he posted on Friday that appeared to be in support of the protesters in Minnesota, Michigan and Virginia.

"LIBERATE MINNESOTA!" Trump wrote in one tweet. "LIBERATE MICHIGAN!" he said in another. "LIBERATE VIRGINIA! and save your great 2nd Amendment. It is under siege!" he wrote in a third.

Maryland Governor Larry Hogan (R) told CNN that Trump's encouragement of the demonstrations was not "helpful." Washington Governor Jay Inslee (D) told ABC News that the president's "unhinged rantings and calls for people to 'liberate' states could also lead to violence."
