Trump tells the states to get their supplies on their own. When they do, the Feds seize the shipments or try to. Last month, 3 million masks ordered by the state of Massachusetts were seized by the federal government. https://nymag.com/intelligencer/2020/04/hospitals-face-a-white-house-blockade-for-coronavirus-ppe.html?fbclid=IwAR0Se4D84_FQTaus5b03dfJvvPspwjDrh9S8Oz5qVTc_bYNtbFUcZok8V1o">https://nymag.com/intellige...

IL Gov Pritzker had to hide the details of a shipment of PPE coming in for fear of the Feds coming in & seizing it “because we’ve heard reports of Trump trying to take PPE in China and when it gets to the U.S.” What& #39;s Trump doing with all these supplies?

The Feds are bidding against states who are trying to buy their own supplies, & refusing to interfere in those auctions between states, which have driven prices up by ten times or more. States finances are being drained & the Fed& #39;s seize much needed supplies.

Trump tells the states their on their own when people are dying, then tries to stop the state resources by having them seized.
Now Trump tries to tell states to open things up when the risk of the virus could spread. This is the actions of an authoritarian leader.
