You bastards subverting criminal justice could have prevented this, but you chose Trump over country and now you're in deep shit with your constituents. If only the virus only struck GOP voters, justice would ultimately prevail. But since COVID doesn't identify its victims before infecting them, the only right thing to do here is to establish a wider net of testing options, and vote these Henchmen of Ignor out of office permanently.

show that Trump is correct -- more testing just results in more detected cases. You are almost there, John. Any day now, the curve will hit its maximum and fall like a rock, if you stop testing. If you give in to the "testers", Trump will turn his base against you in the 2020 election and every election in the future.

Should have taken him out when you had your chance.
