What’s next: At the end of the 15-day period, there will likely be a serious clash between the public health experts — who will almost certainly favor a longer period of nationwide social distancing and quarantining — versus the president and his economic and political aides, who are anxious to restart the economy.
also what's next: a serious clash between millions of people who listen to public health experts and people who attend donald trump rallies

We should trick them into entering an arena for a rally and then lock the doors.

So has anyone done the calculations on how long we need to hole up in our homes until the MAGAs have managed to wipe themselves out completely? Because I'm in it for the long haul, however long it takes.

"the problem itself" is that half the country gets this and 2% of them die, which would be about 3,000,000

Supposedly Tom Fitton's tweet inspired Trump.
He's reacting to dire prognostication but if Congress actually passes a package he'll probably pivot again as the market will react positively, the converse of how it's acting negatively today because there isn't one.
― sorry for butt rockin (Neanderthal), Monday, 23 March 2020 15:21 (four years ago) link
We joke about it, but that’s likely the direction this is going. Trump is infamously impatient. He’s not going to let this play out according to public health recommendations and cede control to a bunch of people that he’s likely already internally investigations for their connections to the Democratic Party and the clintons

Besides, he's in over his head. Not all companies will reopen. Most governors will continue sheltering in place. Concert tours aren't going to resume, many bands that aren't U2 are going to need a while to regroup.
I could see him dangling rescinding federal assistance from those states, but that would be political suicide. But even that wouldn't convince most Governors to reopen. They were taking actions long before that cock declared the emergency.
