2020-04-13 | Trump says he can end coronavirus lockdowns, but it's up to the states - Business Insider
'The Trump administration has, in fact, declined to issue a nationwide lockdown or stay-at-home order. '
'• President Donald Trump claimed in a pair of tweets on Monday that it was the president, not the state governors, who had the power to direct states to lift their stay-at-home orders. '
'At a White House coronavirus task force briefing on Friday, Trump said he would be creating an "opening our country council" aimed at jump-starting the economy. '
'"With that being said," he continued, "The Administration and I are working closely with the Governors, and this will continue. '
'Trump could consider legal action against states or use his platform to urge Americans to go out despite the orders, but he has so far declined to do that. '
