Not because Trump hasn't declared it but because all states haven't made the call yet. If all the states follow the recommendation, we would be in a nationwide shut down right now.

I think states would comply if trump pressed the issue. He hasn't pressed the issue though.
You should look at the 9 states that haven't made the call yet and see if they are red or blue states.

What does party have to do with it? If they are blue, are they bucking Trump? If they are red, you're saying there is some underlying conspiracy for what again? What about other blue or red states who have closed already?

Trump and the task force have been clear about closing. Every state should do it and the government will defer to the states.

I'm saying he has more power, control, influence, sway over those state leaders than you think he does. Especially because they are republican states. I don't know if you have noticed but republican politicians widely support Trump and actively act scared of him. They do what he wants for the most part.

If he wanted those states locked down, they would be. None of the Republican politicians want to be on Trump's bad side.


It's funny cause usually Trump's fans will say how strong and powerful he is and how great of a leader he is and that these things are part of what makes him a great president...... Well when it's convenient anyway. Suddenly he is just a guy with no control. These states leaders have all the power now and just won't listen to him.

As for this clarity that you speak of...... Do you have any tweets from trump or video from trump saying that he thinks all states should close down?

There has to be something out there right?
I mean normally if someone crosses him or disobeys him he will berate them and let them know his displeasure. I'm sure you can find some tweets or audio or video of him getting after the leaders of these states and criticizing their lack of shutting things down enough.

I get paid on Thursday. My brothers business brought in just enough cash in the last two weeks to make payroll and pay the operating loan all the other bills will have to wait. Sisters husband works from home now but there is only work because the state isnt locked down. So yes, Im kind of glad we didn't rush to lock it down.

Goal is to flatten the curve not delay the curve for 1 month. Besides, by the time Rudy was diagnosed and the nation realized it was a real thing, it was already in community spread across the nation we just didn't know it.
 
Hard times ahead. Likely followed by more hard times. A couple of generations of Americans are going ro be shocked.

But I believe in the ability of humans to adapt, to be compassionate and to solve problems. I also believe God is watching and cares for us, and will help us through.

Three weeks ago I wrote down my passwords and collected the paperwork for bank accounts and life insurance.

Last weekend I drove supplies to my father. He gave me copies of all his affairs and we said our final goodbyes.

Yesterday we took food to a neighbor who has been busily selling all his possessions on Facebook for pennies on the dollar....

This week I will write a letter to my wife and each child. To be opened just in case.

What are you doing.

I guess you are a glass half empty kind of person in real life not just the Jazz.
 
It is a really big issue that the government can force a business closed that in turn fires all it's employees right away and then they lose their insurance.

Also hope this wakes up people financially that you need to have a savings account. USA might be worse off than most countries for this reason. It's as that the highest GDP country by a long shot has so many people living pay check to pay check.

How has the economy recovered in China so far? Things still shut down or is it back to business as usual or somewhere in between?

Yep, I am kind of wired that way, I have to really focus on not being negative. Obviously I lost it last night. Good hell that was an awful post.

Typically I let it fly about the Jazz on this board, but keep it in check for the rest of my life. Not so much these last couple of weeks.
