Why didn’t the Fed issue a national Stay at Home order?
Why would Wyoming, where one’s closest neighbor is a half a mile away and public transportation is very limited take the same action as a densely populated area, with robust public transportation?
You don't seem to understand the role of an administrative branch.
A Federal plan would not micro-manage the states, but it would set guidelines. For example, it probably would not tell Wyoming that they have to act the same way as people in NYC, as their conditions are different, but a national plan SHOULD restrict inter-state travel so that Wyoming people don't travel to big cities and bring it back to their state. It might recommend (or mandate) that all states, even rural, restrict gatherings (Sporting events, concerts, religious services, etc.) to allow for social distancing. It would not necessarily prevent these events, just set guidelines, allowing governors in each state to comply in ways that are aligned with their unique circumstances.
Unfortunately, the only leadership we have from this admin is a flip-flop between authoritarian control, and total hands-off so he (DJT) doesn't have accountability. In other words, no consistent leadership from the White House at all. #Sad

what is this administrative branch of which you speak? I'm not familiar with it. How about showing us the flow chart for this administrative branch. Who's in charge of it, etc etc...

Why demonstrate childlike thinking by nitpicking over the use of the term "administrative branch"? That poster's point was obvious, regardless of whether the precise terminology was used, yet you chose to parse words instead of address its substance. What does that achieve? Do you think others think you are smarter by doing so?

VP Pence is a hero of the day
VP Pence gets stuff done even with 'disgusting human beings', like my, 'snake,' Gov Inslee.
