And if I'm not mistaken, we the people made that decision in 2016.

wellformedness criteria:
ratio of benefits to harms
ratio of benefits to cost
ratio of benefits to risks
Trump can first gather information and get advice from experts and then make the decision. As a businessman and capitalist, he has been making those kinds of decisions his whole adult life.

This is why I've blocked both CNN and MSNBC with their ridiculous screaming headlines from my cable channel selection. This political cartoon from the late 19th Century sums it up best:

"...can we trust Trump to make a decision of this magnitude?"
I say NO!
Maybe Chris Coumo should make that call. Or Don LeMon.

The whole thing is a LIE legitimized by a network.
I hate this sort of crap.
To: Sir Napsalot
CNN can no longer be trusted to report the news!

Trump has been saying in 15days he would reassess the situation since he started the conferences . The media apparently hasnt heard what he said every day or refuse to. The media is determined they will not permit the country to go back to work.

Seriously, are so many #eneMedia necessary?
Why aren't most furloughed?
Is there anything any of them has said that is "
helpful in halting the spread of the coronavirus?"

The American people are not going to put up with a long STAY AT HOME policy regardless of the potential risk.
I predicted a few days ago that the policy would only last from two to four weeks and then be lifted.
President Trump’s optimism is for psychological reasons. He is preparing American’s to go back to their normal life knowing progress has been made in the treatment of the virus.
The Democrats (and their allies in the media) want to destroy President Trump so they want as much chaos as possible and they want to keep America locked up for as long as possible.
So the talking points are out there.
Fortunately President Trump does not pay attention to the Democrat talking points.
Our borders will remain closed for awhile (the most effective defense we have currently) but people will be allowed to go back to work and stores and entertainment centers will reopen.
I don’t think we need the bloated stimulation package and hope the President veto it.
