And every single state is different, depending on the political make-up of the Governor, Legislature and State courts.
Red states open. Blue states close. Some arrest people or revoke their business licenses. Some don’t. Some declare the closure rules unconstitutional. Some don’t. 50 states - 50 different sets of rules - mostly determined solely by what political party is in power in that state.
What a total kluster-fuck.
Lifelong conservative here, but a problem like COVID-19 can only be solved by a NATIONAL, COORDINATED response.
And in that, sad to say, Trump has TOTALLY failed. (Hey, great strategy - push the decisions to the states and blame or praise them as needed. Wow. Genius! </sarc>) I’m really struggling to vote for him again in Nov - and probably the ONLY reason I will is that the alternative is just so God awful horrible. But I sure would like for this guy to get his shi~! together. Unfortunately, not really confident he will based on what we’ve seen so far.

So if the NATIONAL, COORDINATED response is to impose a police state, every single state suffers that?
Dr Fauci is that you?
I would like it to go to the Supreme Court. I would love it if the Supreme Court declares the need to make all state governors’ actions Unconstitutional as well.
This is called Federalism in action.

Agree 100%. He was a fool for Fauci, and look what it cost us. Then he punted to the governors.
As I’ve said in other threads and boards, I didn’t vote for fifty governors to lead this nation, hell, I didn’t even vote for the governor I’ve got. I voted for a president to lead this nation in time of crisis and as far as I’m concerned he’s not doing that.
“Total kluster-fuck” is an understatement.
