This is just what Trump is basing his strategy on. It needs to be the rats’ idea to reopen. Financially suffering rats will demand it from the rat governors they elected. LOL
But if the Republican-controlled States, like Texas, open up, and people see that working, the Democrat-controlled states will be under great pressure to also open up. That’s the beauty of Federalism, and that’s what Trump is counting on.
Now that I’ve had a chance to sleep on it I can see certain nuances in Trump’s plan.
He let Fauci and Birx basically write it and present it. Birx’ presentation was a confusing fustercluck that lost 80% of the public. But now when asked by presstitutes they’ll have to answer honestly that yes, Trump did what we advised him to do.
But, at the same time he put responsibility for enforcing the details of this plan totally on the Governors. They asked for it with their 10th. Amendment stompy-foot fit, and now they own it.
When directly asked if he would tell people not to protest Trump refused to do so. And there is every indication that they will, and that these protests will grow large and forceful.
This will force some of the recalcitrant Govs and Mayors to cave, and others to look on jealously at revived tax revenues as their own people seethe. They will turn on each other like starving rats.
The lockdown becomes self-ending when people simply refuse to obey it anymore. And the self-destruct sequence is triggered for the Dem Party.
All while Donald Trump has redistributed the political liability.
That’s risky, but upon further examination brilliant.
