President Trump, we have to give him credit. He said early in the week that he has sole authority to reopen the economy. Everyone recoiled, governors and constitutionalists alike. The next day he had come to the conclusion that the governors should be the final arbiters of things in their hoe states.
He made everybody roar, then backed down to the proper conclusion. Now, the governors own reopening their states. It's pretty smart. Now, they ow it.
Different states will take different approaches, and it will be interesting to see how it comes about. Texas opts for liberty, which is exactly the correct approach, while other states are opting for something less. It is too early to know when Texas will remove the border checkpoints from Louisiana. We'll see.
Our governor will continue to maintain his Stay-at-Home order until it expires on April 30th, and we are still a hotspot here in Louisiana. We have started to end the curve, but I agree we ain't quite there yet. There are some hopeful signs, but our governor is behind the power curve. He says that he is establishing a commission to study the process of reopening. I say he should have already done that, but h is a Democrat, after all. True liberty is not in his nature. He will drag this out as long as possible, trying to suck up federal dollars. That's what he does. Eventually, Louisiana will get a gut-full of his dallying and drag him across the finish line, and he'll claim victory, true to his nature. I truly despise that man.
For myself, I opt for liberty every time. We had cancelled our gun club shoots during April because it seemed prudent. Now, we've learned enough about this virus to practice safe practices, so we'll resume our shooting schedule in May. It will look a litle different than it did in February, but we'll be shooting.
