He's encouraging them to re-open, but offers no plan.
Says there are tests for everyone, but there aren't any.
If they re-open and there are no spikes, then Trump will take all of the credit.
If they re-open and there are spikes, then Trump will blame the governors.
If they don't re-open, then he will use that as a campaign issue in their state and blame the poor economy on the governor for not re-opening.

(18,672 posts)The GOP Governors will kowtow to Trump's mixed signals, open up, kill tons of people and get voted out. That can't help Trump at all.

(22,166 posts)own conferences. I think more and more governors will continue to do this, spotlighting even worse, trump's blatant failures on a daily basis, via these governor-inspired news conferences.
If rump tries to end run these governors, he's going to find it awful difficult to counter/come up w/ valid excuses to justify his crappy responses/actions during this CV crisis.
Trump has the CV's name branded into his forehead, so that in the future, anyone who needs a reminder of just how bad rump is, simply needs to review his 'take bleach' or 'swallow disinfectant' comments (to beat the CV). I don't see how anyone can justify remarks like these. And these are the tip of the iceberg.

(9,952 posts)up a plan. he will have his voters. They are not a part of the conversation. For the rest of the nation, we see what he is doing. And not doing. And the harm ineptness causes.
He went on a tweeter whine, Govs are being praised, when they are only as good as they are because of him.
We know better.
