He wants to impose the end of lockdown... At least he can do it on a federal level, that's a given Now if states object at local level... Well then I guess they will, it's going to go to court, etc... America can turn into a full blown chinese dictatorship if states AND the federal government are on board with a common totalitarian program, and that's without taking into consideration that the judicial system has to be on board with that too, or at least de facto mostly excluded from the equation, somehow. Now if one oppose the other... It's going to drag in court for years For that to happen you would need a cartel of private interests to takeover the whole... Local(s) and federal positions.... That's not impossible while it's a also fucking stretch.... Half of the whole is one thing, all of it, and maintain that position... That's an entire different ballgame, especially if the citizenry starts to go batshit insane over it, it can only be done covertly and on a rather long period of time, incrementally, with a special war time situation, perpetual, on top of that, to justify constant overreach, new normal over new normal One could argue that we're almost there, and that without trump it would have turned to an entire different level of orwell already
