WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump said Saturday that he was considering an "enforceable quarantine" in the New York, New Jersey and Connecticut area, saying the decision could come as soon as later in the day.

“Some people would like to see New York quarantined because its a hot spot. New York, New Jersey, maybe one or two other places. Certain parts of Connecticut quarantined,” Trump said as he left the White House en route of Norfolk, Va. to see off the USNS Comfort, a Navy hospital ship that is headed to New York to provide extra hospital space to help fight the outbreak.

Many people here think calling out the National Guard will be to aid and assist in moving supplies and increasing transportation needs.

Maybe I’m being pessimistic. But this is just one step closer to enforcing shelter in place orders, quarantining millions of people, and moving towards martial law.

“I don’t know how that could be legally enforceable,” Cuomo continued, adding “I don’t even like the sound of it.”

My God!!!

We need a nationwide lockdown says the media and leftist governors!! They even post a fake poll in the Hill saying 71% support if.

Now that he says he might do it the same asshats decry it?!!!

This contrarianism has now officially crossed dangerous. It passed stupid long ago.

They already are fleeing. I heard that our parks, like in the Smokey’s, are closed to keep people that come from other states that have a lot of sickness out. That’s the rumor going around anyway.

Why? NYC is the ‘best’ city on the planet!

(at least that’s what New Yorkers think)

Yes, because he actually said it. I said Trump’s mouth move. Not everything is made up as people like you are so quick to write without even knowing what the facts are.
