He will not. This country will not accept it nor would it even be legal. He knows it which is why you don’t see him, the Democrats, or the media demanding it publicly. That Supreme Court Justice confirmation just became even more important because I believe any such attempt to shut down the country via executive order would fly through the system to that court.

Please provide a source because I’ve never heard him mention a lockdown, just a mask mandate which is also on shaky legal ground. Our republic thankfully gives the federal government limited powers in these situations.

It looks like these countries along with others, are all part of a conspiracy with the left wing liberals here, to ensure that POTUS loses the election.

I was really using your factual statement about England's lockdown (I've since bolded it) to make the point how silly some of these guys on here sound, when they imply and even express the opinion that our healthcare and public health experts and professionals here in the US are hyping up the Corona virus in order to damage POTUS.

So here's what gets me....the US government mandated an emergency order to build ventilators. Ventilators were built quickly.
Now...
Between government mandates and/ or free market demand for N95s, why do we still not have enough??? Going way out on a limb here when I assume an N95 is simpler to make than a ventilator.
