What is the Constitutional implication of POTUS ordering quarantine of several states?

Discussion, please.

1. It's a true emergency so all bets are off.

Got to do what needs to be done to contain this.

3. This virus is everywhere. Not just NY, NJ & CT

It's like trying to put toothpaste back into the tube. It would be messy beyond belief and completely ineffective.

5. Doesn't mean people should be free to spread it around

You could be a carrier and spread it. People need to stay home.

7. People in that region are under stay at home orders.

It is the job of the governors and their National Guard units to enforce it if necessary.

Use of actual federal troops is an outright violation of the Posse Comitatus Act.


Period.

2. We don't have a POTUS. tRUMP and his cultists are the ANTI-POTUS group...

4. I found this information

6. He probably doesn't have that authority

and it's not his goal. His aim is to further divide Americans, into those blue states that can be labeled as "they don't care about what diseases your family gets," and the fearful in the heartland.

Divide and conquer, and leave Joe Biden gasping for news coverage.
