These States are revenue starved and will be relying on the Federal government to bail them out. Trump needs to let it be known that States involved in economic jihad are on their own. They’ll jump right in line.

ROTFL. Mexico and Canada having their own spheres of influence? Only if the drug and maple-syrup cartels take over, respectively.

This agreement is not about any of the measures listed in the article. It is about protecting each of the west coast states’ import markets so that each state is equally burdened by these measures. China still rules.

I can foresee mass civil disobedience and people even intentionally exposing themselves to the virus so they can “ recover” and get out of jail

Start ignoring? I never paid any attn to them to start with. Yeah my small biz is shit down but we depend on venues across the country to be open. When they start opening we’ll reopen regardless of what Newsom says.

the more I think about this, the more I think its just an agreement that none of them will open before the others....you can't have Oregonians rushing into Wash. to buy or vice versa...

I heard a rumor the other day about two indian casinos one in Wash. and one in Idaho....that the Wash. casino had threatened the Idaho casino to shut down or else face a bombthreat.....no kidding...the source seemed to think it was entirely true...

nobody wants to be left behind...

So basically, they are F#$%#$% millions of people who weren’t going to vote for Trump anyways. Namely, their constituents. Except now that they clearly see who’s F@#$%#@@ em, they may vote for Trump. As Trump says......what do you got to lose?

Nothing of substance was announced here, the states are going to get together to think about maybe reopening sometime possibly? It’s another attempt to sabotage the economy and stall out the illegal lockup until election day.

Trump needs to get ahead of this by recommending that ALL states reopen by May 1st (if not sooner). Governors can follow the recommendation or not (most will), but any that don’t will have to answer to their populace. Also governors can’t restrict travel between states or come up with state pacts (commerce clause), this is clear and Trump needs to send the justice department after any such law breaking.

OPEN UP AMERICA NOW.

Kinda hard to cut Washington and Oregon out of the power grid...because of all the hydropower we have. Not to mention the Bonneville Power Administration has it’s main distribution center in Portland.

I’d offer The Solution, but why give these tyrants a warning?

Isn’t it strange that these leftists what are the about shutting it down and keeping it close down indefinitely until Trump started talking about reopening, then they all started To talk about reopening as well? It’s almost like they know Trump is right but refused to admit it.
