Didn’t Trump say at his press conference yesterday that if the governors didn’t listen to him he would overrule them? He also reminded people that his favorite movie is mutiny on the bounty in a tweet.

Red meat to the base. Trump will issue national CDC guidelines and some things but ultimately governors will decide what happens in their states.
In the Alabama press conference yesterday the MSM asked our governor about Trump’s tweet. She didn’t fall for the bait. She said she will work with the Trump administration etc. She said” “What works in Alabama, works in Alabama. We will work together with the federal government but we want what is best for our citizens.”
So each governor will make the call. In Alabama they are talking about a phased reopening plan that treats urban areas differently than rural. No details yet.
Surely he does NOT want to be put into a rowboat and required to row home.
