Trump doesn't care about reopening causing death, but he does cares about unemployment causing his failure at being reelected.

(11,736 posts)He doesn't care. He does not care about anything that cannot benefit him. His base however, will care when their moms, dads, kids, grandkids, best friends, etc... start to die.

(23,945 posts)until then, Trump and the GOP are trying to gaslight and distract the nation... again.
if Trump's campaign wants to tie his re-election to a lagging economic indicator, that's their mistake
our mistake would be to trust that our problems will be solved by an election.

(13,569 posts)He knows it's a certainty, and is rolling the dice to stay ahead of the inevitable.
Remember, though, that he bankrupted a casino.

(11,736 posts)I guess if we reopen, the economy in November MAYBE will look better than it does right now (I have my serious doubts) and he can claim he brought us back from the brink of economic disaster, that his incompetence and callousness created.
Trump only cares about staying in power and out of prison.
Mr.Bill
(24,284 posts)the stock market was at 100,000 and the federal government was mailing me $10K a week.
Caliman73
(11,736 posts)He is horrible. Rest assured, your scenario is not possible at all. He would never be able to bring about the conditions that would make the stock market climb that high nor get people checks mailed out by the government.

Then the incoming Dems can put him in prison.

(10,123 posts)But a stash of his dough has probably been in the Cook Islands for more than two years (so it is nearly impossible for anyone but Trump to get) and Air Force One will be making an unscheduled stop in a country with no extradition treaty sometime before Jan 20, 2021.
President Bone Spurs tries to talk tough but he's always been a chicken (with apologies to chickens everywhere).
