“The governors need to do the right thing and allow these very important essential places of faith to open, right now, for this weekend,” Trump said.
President Donald Trump on Friday declared houses of worship “essential” and called on governors to allow churches, synagogues and mosques to open, threatening to override state leaders if they fail to comply.
“The governors need to do the right thing and allow these very important essential places of faith to open, right now, for this weekend,” Trump said at the White House. “If they don’t do it, I will override the governors.” Trump has previously claimed, mistakenly, that he had “total” authority over governors in easing coronavirus-related restrictions. Experts quickly reiterated on Friday that Trump does not have such authority now, either:
