Joe Scarborough suggested that there is no way that trump would reopen "business as usual", if the

[still_one]

numbers increase in two weeks.

After what trump has done, why anyone would give him that benefit of the doubt is beyond me

[empedocles]

1. Might be the Speaker's serious consideration,

and rw fears, screaming Dem 'delay, delay, delay'.

[SummerSnow]

2. I believe he will do it and punish states who don't abide by his rules.

There is no cure for this virus and people are getting sicker at faster rates. More people are dying as well from it. Then who will he blame then? This act will be his Waterloo.

[still_one]

4. I would hope his reckless behavior and disregard even before this health crisis all will contribute

to his "Waterloo"

[dem4decades]

3. Maybe Joe's talking to the Orange Menace, trying to sway him.

5. WWOD?

what would Obama do and trump will do the opposite. Hell, trump does he opposite of what is best for the people. trump will take Joe's statement as a dare.

[PCIntern]

14. I thought WWOD meant

"What would Orange Do"?

I am so sick of him and his minions I could vomit fast as a comet.

[mercuryblues]

17. Sorry to invoke that in you

maybe it should WWBD. What would Barack do? To avoid that confusion again.

[still_one]

6. No idea. I don't usually watch Morning Joe, but when you have republican governors issuing shelter

in place, it sure doesn't seem that he has a consensus among republicans

[dem4decades]

7. I can watch it as long as they're trashing Trump, otherwise it's a Republican

Party fest.

[still_one]

8. That is what I always suspected

[C_U_L8R]

9. Imagine the dumbest thing anyone could possibly do

And Trump will go dumber.

[still_one]

10. +++

[2naSalit]

13. +2!

[Mystery sage]

16. So dumber then.....

lift orders of self isolation, have a big rally with hugs all around at the end(because f the dems)

orders all business (including church members) to operate as normal without testing any of them, then pin all of this on dems made him do it.

[NickB79]

18. Collecting all the contaminated N95 masks from hospitals

Slapping a MAGA sticker on them, and reselling them at his rallies to own the libs?

[Hoyt]

11. Fine with trump re-evaluating things next week. He won't make a change. Even if he did, states won't

change their edicts just because trump "orders" it.

[still_one]

12. You are right Hoyt, that is the key. States are going to do what they are going to do

[2naSalit]

15. The governors

have been coordinating among themselves, they get it, except for that goober in the south... can't recall which state, the one who held a prayer service instead of closing down the state.

Not only that, by next Monday it will be clear that staying home is best and would probably chose to do so. I suspect the vast majority of rumpeteers don't have jobs so they won't be making a big dent in the will of the workers to go back when they decide it's safe.
