Hello Aaron,

>But how can anyone enforce it?

He has federalized the national guard, activating one million of them
to serve in this crisis.

>I'm guessing that Trump looked at it that way.

Of course.  He's the prez who wishes to be a dictator.

>He can declare anything he wants, but if he tried to "declare martial law"

How far did the Black Panthers get when they tried that approach?
The governor of Louisiana had his state troopers shoot them dead,
ask questions later.  Does the president have the balls to order
the national guard to shoot on sight?  Would the national guard
act on his orders?

>Nobody is listening to Trump more than they have to - am I right?

His daily campaign events (White House daily briefings) have become
more sporatic as of late.

That should be enough to answer your questions as to why people are so
frustrated with Trump's response and what needs to be done.

Even today, the president still does not have a plan in regards to
the coronavirus pandemic.  His incompetence in this matter is truly
astounding.

>I take it back - Dan did give some examples, such as increase government
>research on the virus - but research has begun, according to the media.
>They're saying that there are 2 vaccines being tested currently.

I seriously doubt any safe and effective vaccine will be found.
Not now, in the near future, or ever.  The Spanish Flu began in the
same way, had three waves, killed millions of people worldwide, and
no vaccine was ever found.  Jumped from bat to animal to man.  Same
as the coronavirus.  After the major waves made their rounds, the
Spanish Flu continued to circulate for another 38 years.

>Trump didn't take the warning seriously 3 months ago? What could he have

Read the article by Vox (cited above).  It explains all.

Trump owns this mess.  All of it.
