[quote:Anonymous Coward 76781008:MV80Mzk4MzQwXzgwMDczMzI2X0U2NjU4Njk4] [quote:@Ohwell:MV80Mzk4MzQwXzgwMDczMjc4XzdENjgzNUVE] [quote:Anonymous Coward 76577984:MV80Mzk4MzQwXzgwMDczMjM1XzY3QjU4QzU0] To be clear, Trump can't do shit to force churches/temples/mosques to open. Little thing called the 10th Amendment. This whole thing today was just a PR stunt. [/quote] More like a nuke and an insult on people’s beliefs. And no he can’t do anything which raises the question what the heck was this about. [/quote] Oh, he can do something.
