This is what completely inept leadership looks like when you only listen to the last person you heard and change your mind on a whim.
how is it hanging the governor out to dry if it is ultimately the governor's decision?

Because Trump is playing both sides of the coin and prepared to throw all the states under the bus if and when things don’t go well.

Trump desperately wants states to start to open. If it goes well he looks great. If it goes poorly he can publicly denounce them as not listening to him.

What we get when the president talks out of both sides of his.... ass in this case.
