The administration is simultaneously doing a number of things politically.
1. Putting out an “official” re-opening plan.
2. Dumping (after 6 weeks of non-accomplishments) all testing responsibility onto the states.
3. Spreading social media posts blaming the state governors for not re-opening their economies, even though doing so would violate all the stipulations in 1. the official re-opening plan.
Trump said 10 day ago that he was the one and the only one who would make the call on re-opening. He has now backed fully away from that stance to the opposite one. Blame the governors for not re-opening, while completely evading responsibility for either helping them do so, or supporting their efforts to put the conditions in place that would allow them to do so.
It’s a tour de force display of blame-shifting jiu-jitsu.
