I have no doubt that he has the authority to do so. I just don't see any real point. Well, I guess there's one. He gets to smash some libs and snowflakes, so there's that. Things are looking a bit grim for hm at the moment, so I suppose from a strategic standpoint, throwing some chum to the usual Trump crowd can only help him feel better when he gets to have rallies again.
I suppose my main question about it would be: if the virus is no big deal, and we all need to stop being candy-asses and re-open the country ASAP, then why the urgency to take an action like this with respect to the virus?
If you want to stop immigration when unemployment is under 4% and stop immigration when unemployment is over 10%, chances are it never had anything to do with jobs.
