President Trump says he has "absolute authority" to ease social distancing guidelines.

"I don't know that I have had a bigger decision," he said. "Hopefully it's going to be the right decision."

He points to his head & says he will be using metrics in his mind to re-open.

1. He has ZERO control over what states are doing.

11. You're assuming the constitution still applies

I think we end up in a fight between trump and govs about opening up in May

2. I'd trust Pence to read Trumps entrails to make the call. It'd be better odds to get it right. n/t

3. He's going to torpedo this thing.

He's got his marching orders from his favorite TV show, and to him nothing else matters right now.

4. How can he use metrics in an empty head ...

there has to be something there to measure.

5. He's sending the signal that he doesn't give a fuck about states citizens

HIS fucking mind is ALREADY made up! He wants to KILL so there are LESS VOTES in Nov.

10. The only problem for him is it's likely that an inordinate number of MAGAts are gonna die.

6. His delusions of grandeur are truly a thing of horror...

The horror... the horror...

7. Actually he does have authority.

Over Republican governors.
They seem to have pledged undying, (or dying), fealty to whatever he wants them to do.

8. Fealty

Every time I see that word now, I think of the John Witt movies!
How'd that pledging fealty work for all of them?!?

9. Personally, I don't give a flying fuck what he says.

I'm listening to my Governor
