US president Donald Trump has claimed he has 'total authority' to supersede decisions made by state governors to ease social restrictions during the coronavirus pandemic. 'When someone is president of the United States the authority is total', Trump said during a White House press briefing. Reporters questioned the assertion, asking: 'You said that when someone is the president of the United States their authority is total. That is not true. Who told you that?' Trump replied 'We are going to write up papers on this'. Although claiming he had the authority to 'call the shots' for each state's lock-down regulations, Trump insisted he was 'getting on very well with the governors' and is 'certain there won't be a problem'
