six governors from states on east coast and three on the west coast announced their own pacts to come up with a framework on how and when to reopen.

AHA! Succession.

Now if we can just get Upstate NY and Northern CA to break away from their communists.

By the way he said it makes me think this too. They’ll reopen their states just to defy Trump, when actually they’re playing into his hands. I think Trump is deliberately provoking them to reopen.

So, criticize Trump for not using his authority to shut down the country sooner than he did, then criticize Trump when he claims to have the authority to open up the country again.

AMEN to that! NY and CA, like my state of VA, are held hostage by the influx of non-state residence who move here and become one. 95% living in the big cities and tipping the elections. But for the most, like our nation, everything BUT the coasts and populated areas are solid red as blood, yet the blue cancer’s voice has the numbers they need :(

Now the fear is being used to encourage the public to take a Universal Vaccine

You’re right. Apologies, FRiend.

The entire thread angered me and I took it out on you.

It’s a sad state of affairs when we’re discussing when we’ll be able to “act like free citizens” again, IMHO.

“states deciding”

AMEN, one of the great things of this country is letting decisions be made 50 different ways and see what works best as those move forward.

Trump has beautifully trolled Blue State Govs into claiming they hold the authority to re-open their states, which then means they also own the responsibility over when they decided to close their state.

A fact that Trump will gladly remind everyone at the right time.

Yep - and with declarations of national/state emergencies, President Trump acquires powers/authority not ordinarily bestowed...they howled he needed to enact/wield the powers under the Defense Protection Act to force businesses to help them and then try to deny that he has such plenary powers...they howled for it, they got it....

But we are most fortunate to have a President who takes such powers and authority with a strong sense of moral responsibility and who is loath to use these powers unless absolutely necessary.

I didn’t mean to anger anyone by posting this, but it is an important topic and shines light on the “rats” who hide in the dark doing their dirty work. For one, I’m sick of how the left lies so care-freely. As if it’s how they live and breath and without it would quickly perish. Oh wait! They would!!

South Dakota is running the Swedish model and is pushing HCQ.

Sparse population.

I’ve read that almost half of their cases came from a meat packing company.

We’ll see who that works for Sweden and SD.

President Trump knows the rules and the power and authority that come with the national/state emergency declarations...as Mike Pence stated yesterday - the circumstances endow the President with plenary powers and authority...but he is loath to wield them w/o proper cause because of his own sense of moral responsibility and love of the Constitution...they howled for him to wield the powers of the defense Production Act and now think that they are exempt...
