Well, yes schools sill be open. But Mike Pence has no power to make that decision.

Trump can withhold federal funding until federal recommendations are met for reopening.

There is one state who has the cash to push back, but that will run out.

Trump is completely beholden to 65+ yr old voters who are overwhelmingly paranoid of the virus and willing to #### over future generations of Americans so that they can hold onto life for 3 more years.

So, no, Trump will not do anything proactive like that and will continue to let governors run the show (as he has done for the past 3 months).

Not offended at all. Just pointing out that we are making public policy decisions (as a world) which only benefit those of us who have the least amount of life ahead. There will be longterm, catastrophic effects of this felt for decades.

Sadly, the world’s young people are too myopic and manipulated to fully realize the chaotic world period we have just kickstarted. The seeds for WWII were laid in the late 1910’s, and I fear we have just gone down a similar path. America will be ok in the upcoming depression but most of the world will not.....and that will one day effect us in a major way.

One irony is young people voting for candidates providing free tuition, free salaries, free everything ... when the old-timers will soon retire and the young will pick up 100% of the tax bill. When your political source is a late night TV comedian, you might just figure out one day you are being used.

This is still America so its not up to anyone to tell us how to live. By the way serious question if you have a mask on and I dont if the mask is so #### good how are "you" not ok?

I would say about half of my patients 65+ I’ve come across have been strongly in favor of opening things up, understanding their risk and accepting it. So I think you are probably talking out your rear without and real world view. Y’all about myopic. 35yo who thinks the low risk population (in SC people less than 50 represent 50% of cases but only 1% of deaths) should, even obligated, to get back to normal while the high risk population, at their choice, continues to shelter so we can build some native heard immunity, and I think one of the worst possible things is keeping schools closed because it won’t matter what the rest of us under 50 crowd do if we have to stay home and play teacher.

Well said Leo. I'm afraid many of us characterize others by age. From what I read on this and other boards, we've got some pretty sharp old buzzards on this board. I wish I was half as sharp as them. I'll cut a deal with you guys and gals. I will refrain from making disparaging remarks about you older posters if you will not make disparaging remarks about us in the younger generations. OK?

Re: So now we're against states rights?***


May 15, 2020, 4:58 PM

Unfortunately, if one reads beyond headlines, the current administration (in general) does not support state rights in a typical sense. The situation where states are allowed to draft their own guidelines had to be prefaced with a caveat that Trump could absolutely make the call if he wants, but is choosing not to this time. He’s doing the right thing in that respect imo, but it is driven by a need for plausible deniability, rather than adherence to supposed republican tenets.

I don't see this being the one issue the federal actually government actually does something pandemic related either. All Trump does is attack governors. If only he were in a leadership position himself.

Unlike Clueless Joe, who as Veep had to betray Seal Team Six in order to convince people he was actually in the loop.

I know, that's irrelevant to the current discussion. I'm just illustrating that the person who accepts the Veep role is basically useless--until he isn't.
