This is a good point about his recklessness in just throwing bullshit out there without thinking of consequences. That said, I am not sure many in my tri-state region will fall for it, after all NYC is his hometown and they know him best:

The president just told everyone in NY, NJ, & CT to bug out immediately. It's going to be chaos, & it's going to spread COVID across the country.

This is exactly what happened in Hubei & Milan, & now it will happen here. Unbelievable. Someone take his phone away. https://t.co/223XK834El

Plus a lot of those who couldn't take how it is around NYC and had a place to go already left. I think Cuomo made this point right at the start of management, how many are not full time residents and have other places to go.

In reply to It fits in the circular file

Cuomo said straight out it wasn't legal and theoretically he could sue Gov. Raimondo/R.I. and had every confidence he would win. But he didn't seem worried it would come to that, he said they're gonna talk and work it out. As if she's probably got political pandering worries and they''ll work something out. (Note she is a Dem.)

He took a very different stance about Trump's threats, both that they were ridiculous and constituted a civil war situation, but it was more like: Trump doesn't even know what he can do and can't. And pointed out several times that he had just before been on the phone with Trump and that he never mentioned it, though the spent time on even minor things. He was basically cluing the reporters in that it was Trump bullshit for ego and like Fauci often does, he was just going ignore it because it wasn't true, wasn't gonna happen and not worth spending much time thinking about theoreticals right now, time's a wastin'

In reply to Is it legal for the National

It fits in the circular file/graveyard in Bill Barr's office along with the the other laws, violations of which are Federal crimes whose prosecutions are within his corrupt discretion.

Is it legal for the National

Is it legal for the National Guard to obtain information on citizens of the United States?

Isn't this involving the Guard in a domestic law situation?

Where does Posse Comitatus fit in?

I have been checking that out

In reply to If you haven't seen how Cuomo

I have been checking that out and while I have and have had a lot a problems with his decisions, his responses regarding the State versus Federal responses are really helpful.

This morning, he spoke of States possibly making up for the lack of Federal help by taking matters into their own hands. Maybe they could meet in Philadelphia and form a Union.

If you haven't seen how Cuomo responded to this and to Drumpf's bullshit pandering along the same lines, check it out on CNN, was great, logical cool-as-cuke, not at all angry, perfectly dismissive of Drumpf and "we'll work it out" towards R.I. gov. The talking heads are trying to make drama out of it by picking out phrases but I saw it live and was all no-drama Cuomo. He'd be a great moderator on a website.
