zeuser comments on Apr 10, 2020:

First, he didn't actually close anything, so he has no power to open anything back up. And he knows the idea will go nowhere. Second, he is floating the idea simply to get an outraged response from the dems, so that, third, when the economy continues to tumble, he can characterize the dem response as political correctness and claim they should have done it his way all along. IMHO, of course, I have no idea what the motherfucker is actually thinking.
