Cuomo: Trump's Quarantine Proposal Would Be 'Declaration of War' on States

Governor Andrew Cuomo said he opposed a quarantine of the New York metropolitan area, a proposal President Donald Trump said on Saturday he was considering to stop the spread of the virus from the most infected area of the U.S.

Cuomo told CNN in an interview that he didn't believe a possible New York quarantine was legal and that it would be a "federal declaration of war" after President Donald Trump said he was considering such a tactic for the New York metro area.

More than 52,000 of the nation's 113,000 coronavirus cases have been reported in New York state alone. The apex of the pandemic there is still 14 to 21 days away, Cuomo said, quoting his health experts.

"As a governor, I'm not going to close off my borders," Cuomo, a Democrat, told CNN's Ana Cabrera.

"This would be a federal declaration of war on states," Cuomo said, adding that he doesn't think the President is looking to start a war with states.

Oh well Cuomo I for one don't want you New Yorkers bringing the virus into Delaware,Maryland & Easteren Shore of Va. Hell I would hate to be the one pulling them over. And think about all the Speed Traps in Delaware and the Police having to pull them over for that as well as other violations.

It would be war. We aren't serfs. We are not going to be told to live indefinitely in our house with a few leader's permission to occasionally leave. It's a waste of time anyway as there is no way to logistically deliver everything 320 million are going to need from now to indefinitely.
