So as Trump gets ready to announce "Hey governors, let's go ahead and open this country back up for business!" you're going to see the Democrats & DNC Media frame this like a DICTATOR is giving an ORDER to these governors.

And it's not true.
Top Democrats and DNC Media people will snidely pontificate into every camera they can find "What, does this President think he's a dictator or something? He thinks he can just ORDER governors to do this?!"
These will be the same people claiming Trump wasn't going far enough in ORDERING these governors to do stuff in the past 45 days.

Same people.

Give them the amount of respect they deserve, m'kay?

OK I see I wasn't clear enough, from the comments.

Let me try again.

Trump's Twitter isn't an official order.

What **official order** did Trump make to all 50 governors that MADE them shut their states economies down?

Can **anyone** find that order? Link it to me?
Trump saying on his Twitter "Hey, I'm about to give ANOTHER order to the governors that REVERSES the earlier order I gave them!" means he's playing the Democrats own stupid game with them.
The ultimate Troll Master is trolling here.

He **never** gave an official order to shut the country down that these governors had to obey.

If he did, people should have no trouble finding it.

Go find it then.
Now, understanding the complex issue here, that Trump **never** gave an order to these governors to LOCK THEIR ENTIRE STATES DOWN, the governors did that on their own, by their own authority, not Trump's....

let's dig in.
When Trump says the national emergency is over, and several of these governors insist on leaving their states in total lockdown and are vowing they were will keep things locked down for the next 2-3 months, THAT is when Constitutional issues come into play.
Constitutional rights are not Constitutional suggestions.

US citizens have basic god-given rights to freedom of assembly and freedom of worship.

That includes freedom of TRAVEL without which citizens cannot assemble themselves for worship or any other purpose.
When the threat from the CCP Virus has become minimal and either because they're panicked or they're playing stupid political games, Democratic governors insist they'll keep their states in lockdown until the end of the summer and maybe even into November, guess what happens?
When states are showing cratering #'s of people contracting the CCP Virus & the #'s of hospitalizations have dropped to parameters well within the abilities of that state's health care system of dealing with it, & D gov's insist on keeping their state locked down anyway...
THAT is when the feds are going to take action to restore basic rights to the citizens of those particular states.

Long before that point gets reached, voters are going to have decided the political fates of a lot of these governors.

And that's a good thing.
