Back to Work in May? President Trump Signals It’s His Call and You’re Going to Need a Mask
By PJ Media. The president seemed to signal on Sunday that we will be going back to work soon, but suggested we’re going to need masks. After announcing that governors should get their act together quickly, Trump added, “Also, gear up with Face Masks.” The intent is clear—when we come out of lockdown, we’ll be covered up.
Governors, get your states testing programs & apparatus perfected. Be ready, big things are happening. No excuses! The Federal Government is there to help. We are testing more than any country in the World. Also, gear up with Face Masks!

….It is the decision of the President, and for many good reasons. With that being said, the Administration and I are working closely with the Governors, and this will continue. A decision by me, in conjunction with the Governors and input from others, will be made shortly!

The president asserted he had the ultimate authority to re-open the largely shuttered economy despite an earlier deference to U.S. state governors and constitutional questions about whether that decision-making fell within his purview. . .
Trump said he and Fauci had been on the same page “from the beginning” and declared he liked the respected doctor. “I think he’s a wonderful guy,” Trump said, while adding that not everyone was happy with the health expert.
