Don’t mess with Texas. You’ll wind up with a busted nose, Mr President.

Declare them seditious and rebellious enemies then crush them like Lincoln did."

I agree. In order to save the union.

Is the headline click-bait?

“The smartest approach Trump could take would be to encourage the “reopening” decisions to be made at the state and local level.”

Why? 24 US States are controlled by domestic enemy governors, who hate all for which America stands.

The Texas governor is already set to open up the economy this week, no?

Looks like the leftists are going to be hoisted on their own over-expanded Commerce Clause petard.

Partner, our POTUS President Trump can declare a state of emergency which we are in one of these emergencies.

Through the power of the U.S. Constitution the power to open up the U.S. for Business is the U.S.A.

This power does not rest on the $540,000.00 Fauci who is an employee of the gov'mint and it does not rest on the other idiot Birx who gets paid very well.

The commerce clause reopening can only reside with President Trump.

22 out of 24 Dem governors ave instituted harsh lockdown regimens. 9 red state governors have very little to no lockdowns at all.

I’m waiting with bated breath to see how Baby-Face-Beshear in Kentucky reacts. Inspite of Beshear’s election, Kentucky is for Trump with the throttle pegged into the firewall and he knows it.

My guess is if any Dem caves, he’ll be the first to do so.

And he better do it before the Rat Governors do. These friggin rats once they realize they cant tank the economy with the fudging of the numbers and their lockdown policies, they will switch in a matter of an afternoon and start taking credit for their State’s recoveries... smmfh...

He didn’t shut them down. How can he be the only one who can open them?

Trump, or any other president, cannot order a state to undeclare an emergency. He can, however, declare from the fed level that the emergency is over, and turn off the money spigot...

Not based on the structure of Emergency Management as it’s defined.

But whatever. No one has been really interested in this is all “supposed” to work since the beginning.

So, everyone just do what you want. Lol.
