first they denied completely, following limbaugh's lead, and called it a dem hoax to force big govt solutions, then pivoted into death rates exaggerated, mostly just old people, we have to go back to work.
limbaugh wwould not have led that delay effort unless trump - who he was having golf with and meeting and talking with in those early months - wanted him to.
used to be when a proposed walmart got opposition from littlle biz and environmentalists the local rw radio could be counted on to defend wallmart. but when only big box stores were open they turned on them screaming for 'justice' - why only the big stores? what about the little guy. we shouldn't be helping the little guy take care of his employees though.... and no recognition that a main function of shut down was to reduce 'general' traffic to reduce burden on essential workers, supplies, be able to contact trace, etc.....
now any dem politician in those talk radio states will get the blame and the republican dittoheaded dumbshit politicians who took medical advice on COVID from a lung cancer victim who was telling them regulating cigarettes is a liberal plot and global warming is a hoax, will get the excuses and praise.
