It down. Same applies to reopening. Otherwise he could have just mandated it, which of course we know didn't happen.
Did he listen to dumb ass career bureaucrats in making recommendations? Yes. He did so in part because he was being upstaged by NYs governor who was holding a daily press conference and making the President look inconsequential
