Question: suppose a Trumper has symptoms and tries to get a test.

And, even though Trump said that anyone who wants a test can get a test, and Pence keeps talking about the millions of tests available, the Trumper is unable to get a test.

Does that break the Trumper spell? Or does the Trumper keep on believing?

I had even been civil with a few in discussions.The social media disinfo campaign kicked into high gear and those people are following a whole new playbook, now.

Wouldn’t give me the test because of my MAGA hat.
Deep state nurses probably support socialized medicine.
Trump will fix this in his next term (hope I don’t die first).

So unless it got real bad would not go to doctor. I guess if they ended up almost dying and after infecting a ton of people they would be angry and feel lied to.

It would have to be more than mild case for them to care.
