Correct. He's saying this just to drag Cuomo. Typical teapot dictator shit.

Trump downgrades quarantine comments on New York State, New Jersey, and Connecticut to Travel Advisory warning only(Updated)
- Thread starter .Detective.
- Start date
i suspect Fauci was briefly "fired" on Friday actually (for disagreeing with Glorious Leader) and then Trump got talked out of it by Ivanka.
This city needs 95 degree heat and fucking rain non stop to keep the fools inside.
Some dick was walking a foot away from my yesterday, decides to breakout his AirPods, and blow into the case repeatedly. I was rocking a mask, just walking to the super market, I can't avoid stupid people, lots of fools who don't fucking consider their actions. I'd have locked this city up tight as fuck on March 1st, both Cuomo and De Blasio fucked up.

The jackass will probably take credit for it, because it's his building.
"A beautiful hospital was made in my building. The best. Because my building is perfect and safe. The safest."
No fire prevention systems in his tower in NY, though. I doubt it would ever be converted. Would be hilarious though
I get your point and i agree, but we are living in times where basic decency and competency are rare as hen's teeth. So giving a little credit where credit is due isn't a bad thing
A shelter in place that barely anyone was actually was following because it's sunny California and everyone is out jogging and running around anyway.
Yeah that's what I was thinking too, setting up a perimeter outside the city or something
Like Cuomo said, when you do shit like this all people do is flee to the less stringent state. The family/friend corridor of the north east is vast since all the states are relatively small, you would have to realistically quarantine multiple states and then in a panic people would still flee to farther states.
That said, great Promo for HBO's 'DMZ's adaptation, lol. Gonna have armed guards around Manhattan when it drops

Ava DuVernay's DMZ pilot for HBO Max actually finished filming
The project stars Rosario Dawson, who had a lot of nice things to say on Twitter.

This is what a lot of people don't get. If you want to totally shut down NYC you also have to totally shut down Connecticut and New Jersey, at a minimum. Realistically, you also need to shut down Pennsylvania, Vermont, New Hampshire, and maybe Massachusetts.Like Cuomo said, when you do shit like this all people do is flee to the less stringent state.

.Detective. You might want to hit the "report" button on your OP & ask the mods to update the thread title. He's also considering doing the same thing with New Jersey & parts of Connecticut.

Trump says quarantine for N.Y., N.J. and Connecticut 'not necessary'
The federal advisory came after Trump announced a quarantine for the three states would not be necessary.
www.nbcnews.com
I don't really understand what this means. NYC is already under an effective lockdown. Preventing travel for essential workers in and out of NYC is impossible; many people commute to work at hospitals from NJ and CT.
In the long list of bizarre human behaviors this is one of the stupidest to me. Why in times of disaster there are lots of assholes who assume this defiant attitude? You see them during tsunamis, hurricanes, tornadoes, etc. What are they trying to convey? That they are tough, or cool or what?People in New York are being fucking stupid about this.
Photos Show NYC Parks Still Bustling During The Global Pandemic
On Friday, Mayor de Blasio said he would consider fines for people congregating in parks.gothamist.com
there's not really much to explain? it's been very clear and obvious since Monday that Fauci is on a very tight leech with Trump. He could potentially fire him any minute.
Yup. We are talking a shitload of states a couple of hours with a scenic drive away from each other. You can add Delaware, Rhode Island, and Maryland to the mix all 3 hours away with NYC and close sister cities tied together where many commute in some capacity weekly, and some DAILY to the NYC area.
Ten state minimum shutdown! LOL.
Well yeah but i just wasn't sure if i missed something on Friday to support your theory
Tri-state is all but shutdown already.
Dude is only wasting time and costing lives not doing a nationwide quarantine. It's inevitable, but he's weeks late on every move.

there is progress happening, however I would not put your bets on a vaccine. The reality is even with how fast work on the vaccine is being done you are still waiting a year minimum. Fauci has said as much himself.
oh, sorry for not figuring out that was what you were confused about. Frankly I don't know either, but I feel the writing has been on the wall with Fauci since Monday. I've stopped watching Trump's briefings because they've been giving me panic attacks.
Dude doesn't have the discipline to do it correctly, and the exemption list will be large enough to drive trucks through, literally.
A significant amount of New Yorkers live in the Poconos, Easton, and Allentown, so you might as well quarantine Pennsylvania while you are at it, but that breaks the narrative because PA is a swing state.

Seriously, everything north of Virginia on the Eastern Seaboard would need to be shut down.
99% chance that he's doing this for the wrong reasons. But lockdowns in general aren't a bad idea, here in Finland the govt just ordered the lockdown of the region around the capital for a few weeks. It's only to cut down on "frivolous" travel, so people can cross the checkpoints if they have a sufficient reason.
Fauci said into the cameras how he could not imagine that someone with a moral conscience would compare the pandemic to car crashes.
3 days later Trump compared the pandemic with car crashes, said he won't listen to experts and Fauci was nowhere to be seen.
So ok let's say he does it. What happens when a bunch of red states start to get out hand too?
The only reason we are seeing large numbers is because of testing. Other states are not doing enough testing. Once they do, things will not look that different than NY.

Whatever keeps it from coming to Southern Ontario because right now NY has never felt closer,
Tho believe me I'm aware of T.O and Ottawa. I'm smack dab in the middle of these big hotspots, and I'm nervous. I cat imagine actually living in it.

Coronavirus Updates: Cuomo Says Quarantine On NY, NJ Would Be "A Federal Declaration Of War"
The governor pushed back against the possibility of a quarantine on New York State.
gothamist.com
There are hospitals in NY resembling the worst hospitals in Italy and Wuhan with makeshift morgues and completely overloaded condictions right now (read up on Elmhurst Hospital)... it's a real problem and it is a NYC specific problem as well, at least so far.
Those areas are also in poorer parts of the city where there are a ton of people working in blue collar "essential" jobs so it's not like they can just flee elsewhere.
A quarantine like this would basically be throwing up your hands and saying 'I don't care what happens to these places'.
So yeah, Trump will probably do it.

i have certainly been expecting Fauci to be fired and i think Trump definitely wants to fire him but someone(s) are telling him not to.
Now with people like Limbaugh saying shit like this:
I think it's coming
he missed a day of press conference with no explanation right after an interview where he'd directly contradicted the president. I thought it was last Friday. May have been a different day.
one thing I've noticed about the majority of the us coverage is how sterile and pg-rated it is - how much they're avoiding showing people dying or morgues. I realize it sounds grim but if I get it — I volunteer to go on camera and hopefully scare the shit out of people slow to accept this reality.
I don't expect this to happen in any state, not even NY. Dumbass Donald says a lot of things, the majority of which are lies.
It would have no practical effect. It would just allow Trump to offload blame to the states for the virus outbreak, and then take credit if the curve eventually flattens like its supposed to in a couple weeks.
Remember, Trump has taken zero action so far that isn't directly tied to his approval rating.
Our Republican governor can barely put a coherent sentence together and he won't do it in Georgia.
