With millions of Americans locked down at home and out of work, President Trump asserted on Monday his authority to reopen the country at a time of his choosing, although questions remain over the limits of his power because he is not the one who shut it down.

It is the decision of the President, and for many good reasons. With that being said, the Administration and I are working closely with the Governors, and this will continue. A decision by me, in conjunction with the Governors and input from others, will be made shortly!”

Trump decided to be the President,not the dictator the left is constantly accusing him of being.He left the power in the hands of the Governors of each state. It must have taken great restraint. Notice Biden and the Democrats have no such limits. That should terrify every American .
