It's interesting that none of the "reasonable moderate" Northeastern Republican Governors are a part of it.

The Federal government is not supposed to be out there buying vast amounts of items and then shipping. You know, we’re not a shipping clerk.

 Trump's response to supplying the states with the resources to fight Covid-19 and facilitating action so they were not competing against each other.

But now Trump decides when the States open back up, lol. How can anybody take this clown seriously?

The four people who still live in Wyoming must be deeply saddened.

Barr could argue about states with Shelter in Place orders having violated the doctrine of the Inverse Commerce Clause applies also has an analog in the Executive Branch or something about Trump being C iC and the decision being part of his National Security powers.

So yeah, there are mental gymnastics available for this. Can't say they are good.

Where is the state defiance?

 States are not going to harm their own citizens because Trump and his family/morons can't get their act together.

Not harming your citizens when being told to is technically defiance. It’s good defiance, but still an act of defiance.

Why was Nevada left out of the West Coast compact? It's a D trifecta that's pretty typically progressive aside from Sisolak. Is it because Sisolak was sluggish in getting started with emergency responses?

Sisolak did veto the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact. Maybe this is part of a strategy of being a "reasonable moderate" Democrat?

Regarding the Sweden numbers: should be noted that a hugely disproportionate number of deaths are from elderly homes. Sweden, like Washington state, was unlucky that it hit elderly homes very early on. Something like 40% of all deaths in Stockholm are from elderly homes.
