Trump accuses Democratic governors of 'mutiny' as he ignores constitution

Donald Trump accused governors of organising a "mutiny" against him over his vow to "soon" issue an order opening the country amid the coronavirus outbreak, but the president has yet to provide a shred of legal evidence he has the power to do so.Mr Trump began Tuesday the way he ended Wednesday, only his tweets came from the White House residence and his brash, Richard Nixon-esque declarations that his "authority is total" came from the briefing room downstairs. The showman in chief added some dramatics to his claim that he and he alone can override state and local orders to allow businesses and school systems now shuttered to reopen.
