Trump Whitewashes the Fence |
2020-04-15 |
![]() Now, President Trump is embroiled with the left again, this time on the opposite side of the argument. He has stated that he is the final word on reopening the country/economy. (For the record, I have some issues with this, but that’s for another day). The governors, particularly noted DEMOCRAT governors such as New York’s Cuomo, have pushed back citing...please sit down folks...States’ Rights. ...So, let’s recap. Not even a week ago, the left was after President Trump for not being a tyrant and clamping down on non-compliant states. Today, we have Democrat governors, legislators, and even their media enablers advocating for States’ Rights. Hold that thought. There’s another aside to this. No matter when President Trump decides to "open the U.S. Economy," he will get heat. After he makes said decision, the very first — and every subsequent — fatality will be his fault, according to the leftists and trumpeted loudly and long. Unless of course, any of those decisions are made by governors, Democrat governors. Then, they will be ignored. I’m not sure whether or not President Trump purposely engineered this particular situation. What I am pretty sure of, is that the Democrat governors and the leftist press, are both busily whitewashing Aunt Polly’s fence, while President Trump is eating Ben’s apple and walking home with the cumulative treasures of every boy in town. |

#3 Chaos Actual @actual_chaos · 16h As soon as a state that was previously closed re-opens for business it will be a race for other states. Citizens in states that are closed will look on at the celebration of normal life and start to demand their govenors to reopen. The media won’t be able to control the narrative |

#2 I ready a comment yesterday (possibly here, I don't recall) suggesting it was reverse psychology to get blue states to wait just a bit longer after Trump says they are ready. Seems more reasonable than a super-sudden about face on Federalism. |

#1 Not even a week ago, the left was after President Trump for not being a tyrant and clamping down on non-compliant states. Today, we have Democrat governors, legislators, and even their media enablers advocating for States’ Rights. What are we to conclude? The left is schizophrenic? |
