Too bad so many folks formulate their position for or against depending "who" speaks.
Too many parrot the very biased, get Trump at any cost, main stream media.
Too many allow their political persuasion to dominate their position, right and or wrong.

How about we forget the messenger. Then evaluate whether an idea/guideline/order/et al has merit (or not).

The president is in a no win position. If he tells the states what to do....they come back and yell he has no right to tell them what to do. If he provides the guidelines and states now you states implement as you see fit for your specific situation measuring your state of readiness....they come back and yell he is not doing enough.

The current phasing and measuring by state to be implemented by those who run the states is the common sense approach. Eliminates the one size fits all plans. Puts the governor in the position to do what he and his cohorts deem appropriate for their state.

We could get through this national emergency more quickly if the politics and partisan poisoning were set aside.
