The House Intelligence Committee chairman also said there would be no reopening of the U.S. economy without a plan to contain the novel coronavirus.
Schiff tweeted his criticism of Trump in response to a video of Monday's coronavirus briefing at the White House.
In the clip shared by Pod Save America, Trump said:"When somebody's the President of the United States, the authority is total. And that's the way it's got to be. Total. It's total, and the governors know that. The governors know that.
He also suggested he had"allowed" governors to issue stay-at-home orders and business shutdowns to protect public safety, later adding that the state authorities could not"do anything without the approval of the President of the United States." "The authority of the President of the United States having to do with the subject we're talking about is total," Trump added.
Rep. Adam Schiff speaks to the media during a dinner break in the Senate impeachment trial at the U.S. Capitol January 27, 2020 in Washington, DC.
