Rachel Maddow Busts MAGA Myth That Americans Are Willing To Risk Their Lives For The Economy
From the article:
“The polling of the American public doesn’t suggest that that’s what people believe at all, even if that’s how the media is portraying it,” the MSNBC host said.
She added, “Don’t take it from the polling. Don’t take it from me. Front line health workers across the country are telling this story very, very well themselves about this not being something that is just on the coasts and this being something that we need to take seriously.”

Even among the 37% of fanatic Trump supporters, many of them know someone who has been sick. Lies only work as long as people want to believe in them. And the number of believers is diminishing.

Those people obviously believe milling around in crowds of idiots is not good for their health. Likely, most are protesting for changes to the current shut-down orders, rather than complete elimination.
Very different from Trump's idiots.
The media also aren't pointing out that the demonstrators are are far, far, far, FAR under 1% everywhere.
and ability to think in those people who are naturally not oriented to care about either. I think we didn't always realize the immensity of the problem. We probably can't for some, need to improve our batting average with the rest of us.
Gov. Cuomo reminded me of this the other day. Conservative-oriented brains reportedly run new input through an emotional center first for reaction, then send it on for cognitive analysis, including evaluating input against our funds of knowledge. Liberal brains send input for evaluation first, then the result of that on for reaction.
So, generally speaking, how well do deliveries like Cuomo's, feeding people information at length, fare with conservatives? Wouldn't many conservatives need something to react satisfactorily to up front in order to engage, and repeats to stay engaged?
And how many of any of us hang around for deep digs into new input if we've been assisted to being positively carried away by initial reaction? As RW media routinely do.
For sure not this silly person/victim.
