I am not an expert on America laws, but local governors can just say "GTFO" and ignore Trump trying force people back to work in non-essential sectors, correct? Unless he tries to use emergency powers, correct? Which still need to be run through the House and Senate.

“Trump hedging on how soon but he's all but saying he's pulling plug on social distancing guidelines: "We're going to be opening up our country. We're going to be watching certain areas."”

“Trump: "If it were up to the doctors, they'd say 'let's shut down the entire world.'" Trump is saying point blank that he won't listen to the doctors.”

Would be eye-opening (hopefully to Trump supporters) to see cases in California, New York, and Washington state either slow down or stay the same rate while cases across red states explode like wildfire.

Maybe we should build it so we are better prepared next time. Because there will be a next time.

We need to invoke the 25th Amendment for this idiot. I'd rather have a six year old in charge.

I expect that red states will open up, blue states remain on lockdown, and then people in red states will get sick and go, "But I thought Coronavirus was over???"

So grateful that the Canadian border was shut down outside of commercial transport, given that this fool is trying to steroid boost another mass outbreak.

If we don't see this through properly, all the damage that's been done will be for nothing. We will get the worst of all outcomes.

His literal freedom depends on staying president, which depends on the economy being strong since he has no other accomplishments to speak of.

If the US just goes and acts around like nothing is happening millions of Americans will die and the world will be forced to isolate the country to stop the virus from spreading from the US to the rest of the world.
How much power does Trump have in this regard, can States just tell him to fuck off and take whatever measures they want anyway?

I would say let's storm the White House and get him out of there, but you know, social distancing and all.

Shit is about to hit the fan as hospitals are overwhelmed and we will have daily deaths in the thousands and this fucker is calling off the national emergency?

Fuck you Trump you insufferable bitch. The national guard and FEMA should be building ICUs. There should be emergency billion dollar initiatives to manufacture ventilators.

The major economic machine states will ignore him anyway, except maybe Texas. Nobody intelligent takes him seriously.

Can't wait when the shit hits the fans again and he blames the dems for reopening the country and how he was against reopening the country and fought against reopening the country.

How about we just wait until the pandemic lessens it's stranglehold on the health of the US instead of making arbitrary promises to "re-open" an economy during a health disaster?


Why can't we do that?

he can stop sending aid to them, and will probably shame them into doing what he wants.
