Because Trump is logical, rational and evidence based. And he needs allies that aren't chasing the rabbit down the "numbers are a hoax" rabbit hole who will back up his recommendations to reopen in the flatline states. Normal voters have a visceral disgust to the "jet fuel doesn't melt steel beams" crowd.

You may have a point, but could you make it without the faggoty appeals to sophistication, please? Thanks.

Hey, if you want to bow down to the Left out of fear of being called names like "conspiracy theorists", and then accuse people who call you out on it of being "uneducated right wingers", (which is another bullshit trope from the Left), that's your choice, (just know that you are a huge gaping-anus faggot for it).

Seriously, it's a good thing that actual men who aren't afraid of being called names like Donald Trump exists, because guys like you, (and Mittens, and Jeb), would never be able to get the things that Donald Trump has accomplished done if a simple name-calling can cause them to freeze up (like a huge faggot).

How do you get that from "Because Trump is logical, rationale and evidence based"?

The numbers aren't a hoax. The numbers are a joke though. There are 69 hospitalizations as of yesterday in all of Palm Beach County a county with over 1.4million people. 69 hospitalizations!??! Thats not a high number, there are dozens of hospital and clinics in that county.

Over 100 people die a year from honey bee stings. But in my state of 2 people die from Coronavirus its on the news all day. The hospitals are not overrun anywhere except NYC and Seattle.

This is quite true and it's the same for a lot of the people here as well. Some people are fine with taking a leap of faith, but there's a very thin line between that and being reckless.

People have been very busy and worried. A lot of people have been out of touch for a very long time. Work, life and other distractions have people focused on what is in front of them instead of what's behind them. It's a really wonderful little magic trick. Look here, not there!

Trump has to go with the lowest common denominator to get everyone on board.

There doesn't need to be one. But there is one advantage that can't be dismissed-- if Trump single handedly pushes for the economy to open he's going to be excoriated by the msn so much so that it stands to hurt him with centrists. If instead you make the face of this movement a professional task force with economic experts that Trump can defer to it will greatly soften the inevitable propaganda blow that will claim Trump cares more about money than people.

I support this.

Deferring to experts to avoid inevitable political backlash is not walking on egg shells, it's politically prudent. It's very easy to do as well, Trump would be committing an unforced error by not deferring on paper.

I think there’s a clear and distinct difference between kowtowing to liberal cucks and maneuvering strategically through a minefield the likes which a president has never traversed.

Thing is, if the economy simply starts recovering, people will notice regardless of what the MSM says. The only real obstacle to that is Dem governors actively working against that sort of recovery. Which they will.

Yes and no, people will definitely notice, but you can't discount the entire media singing in harmony against Trump.

If we agree that the best course of action is to end the shutdown soon, to get businesses running again while still adhering to basic social distancing protocols, what is the resistance to having some professionals help spread the message?

People are scared far more than they ought to in many instances specifically because of the media. It's not as simple as saying back to work, there needs to be a concerted effort. Then dem governors can voice their objections to other professionals and not just Trump.

The media have been salivating for the moment when Trump starts to fire off orders without "the approval" of Dr. Fauci and the other doctors on his team. That's why they always ask "where's Dr. Fauci?" They would love for Trump to order the country open for business all on his own so they can blame every covid death on him from that point on. So he needs a multi-discipline team to back him up and remove the decision making away from his current team of doctors.

We get it here, but when I go on Nextdoor to see how the locals around here are talking, it's shocking to see how they think. Many will gladly forego all of their rights for a little safety and have others locked away just for taking a walk. And this is in Texas! If Trump is going to get us through this and win, he needs to convince all of these sheep that it's OK to move forward and face down the risks. Failing to do that will lead to the permanent destruction of the country.

I don't know about that. Emergency powers are just that.

Because a panel of judges in the 9th District will rule his EO unconstitutional. Remember, only Donald Trump is not allowed to implement and use the power of the Oval Office.
