To be perfectly clear, I disagree with Trump...

Just as it was up to the Governors to decide to shut down their states...

It should be up to them to open them back up. I will offer that it would be a very large mistake for the President to get into some sort of pissing match with Governors such as Gavin Newsom who have been supportive of him during the crisis. Nor is it in anyone's interest to further antagonize those who have not been supportive of him, such as Andrew "crybaby" Cuomo. I believe that now is the time for everyone to work together more closely than they did when it seemed like we closed state after state without any real rhyme or reason.


Today the States of Washington, Oregon, and California offered that they will work together, and some Eastern State Governors appear to be working out some sort of pact or agreement to work together as well. I would think that this would be the best way to handle this. Just as I think it was a mistake for Governors to close their states without consulting or working with neighboring states, I think it would be a mistake to start to reopen without regard to the other states around them.

That being said, this is very large country and what may be good for the west coast may not be good for the east coast. What may be good for the midwest may not be good for the south. I don't see the sense in the President mandating some national order (unless it's very contingent on a variety of things).

Not that I don't believe that the President and the task force should not have a say in what is happening, and not that I believe that Governors should not be working directly with the President and the task force on this. Just that as a major constitutional issue I don't believe that the President is correct to claim that this is "his call". This should be a "joint" call for all parties involved.

Fauci is now saying that had Trump listened to the medical experts earlier he could've saved more lives.

Fauci was telling people on February 29th that there was nothing to worry about and it posed no threat to the US public at large.

, Time to #FireFauci...


Trump retweeted the tweet.


Do you think that the President was right now

....It is the decision of the President, and for many good reasons. With that being said, the Administration and I are working closely with the Governors, and this will continue. A decision by me, in conjunction with the Governors and input from others, will be made shortly!

For the purpose of creating conflict and confusion, some in the Fake News Media are saying that it is the Governors decision to open up the states, not that of the President of the United States & the Federal Government. Let it be fully understood that this is incorrect....

Nation’s Governors Consider Forming Country

In order to better coördinate their efforts to combat the coronavirus, the nation’s governors are considering the extraordinary step of forming a country.

The radical proposal is an unusual bipartisan effort, spearheaded by the Democratic governor of Michigan, Gretchen Whitmer, and the Republican Governor of Ohio, Mike DeWine.

“Mike and I were bidding against each other for masks and ventilators, and I was, like, ‘Mike this is crazy,’ ” Whitmer said. “ ‘It would be so much better if we just worked together and formed a country.’ ”

DeWine said that Whitmer’s proposal of creating a country out of the fifty states “made a lot of sense.”

“It was one of those moments where someone throws out a nutty idea and you think, ‘Hold on, let’s think on that for a second,’ ” he said.

While the idea of the fifty states coming together to form a country is still in the embryonic stage, DeWine said that the states would ideally create a “federal government” led by a “President.”

“We’re all in agreement that it would be amazing to have a President right now,” DeWine said.

A straw poll of the governors indicates that the front-runner for President of this yet-to-be-named country is one of their own: Governor Andrew Cuomo, of New York.

“Andrew keeps saying that he doesn’t want to be President,” Whitmer said. “And I’m, like, ‘Dude, you already are.’ ”
