Donald Trump Declares ‘Mutiny’ as Power Struggle Builds over Reopening Country

Whatever he has over the Governors, it appears to be working. Cuomo has backed down already....

Andrew Cuomo Backs Down: ‘The President Will Have No Fight with Me’

“The president will have no fight with me. I will not engage in it. … if he wants a fight with me, he’s not going to get it from me,” Cuomo said to reporters. “Period.”

Cuomo referred to Trump’s message on Twitter sent Tuesday morning citing the film Mutiny on the Bounty, suggesting he was ready for a fight with governors.

As part of the economic recovery, Cuomo said, he would reach out to the White House in “partnership and cooperation” to work on reopening the country.

“This is going to take us working together,” he said, noting that the coronavirus crisis was “no place for politics.”

Cuomo said he needed the federal government to help fill holes in his budget, fund testing, and deliver other necessary resources to reopen the state.

“He has no fight here, I won’t let it happen,” Cuomo said.
 
He does have a point. If the governors refuse to open, Trump could likely stop federal aid.

That's how they've been strangling the Tenth Amendment for sixty years.

It has been a bipartisan effort.
 
Stopping federal aid would be the best thing to happen in my lifetime!

I'd live to fight in the second revolution.
 
Let’s get this ball rolling, either way!

Government is good. Government is great. We will have those paper please, so that we may re-integrate back into society!
 
States have become too dependent on federal disaster aid. If Trump wants the shutdown over the governors will have to cave in.
