Millions are sacrificing while Trumps herd of psychopaths are pretending Trump defeated the plague. They don't wear masks, and they don't care who they kill WHEN they get sick. And Trump is encouraging them to act stupidly, and literally kill their families and others.
Liberate Michigan!

(7,410 posts)Trump and his supporters are super-spreaders BY DESIGN. They aren't "pretending" to do anything else. They WANT to spread the virus! Trump advocates for "herd immunity", an unproven and deadly policy that will kill far more people than anyone can ever imagine. Trump WANTS to reach a hypothetical infection rate that approaches 70% of the population-- a figure that will, in reality, NEVER be reached. Because it will never be reached (too many people want to live infection-free), the increase in hospitalizations and deaths will merely grow with no end in sight. The "herd" will never reach immunity, and the deaths rate will be out of control. That's Trumpy-Boy's PLAN.
If Trump makes it to a second term, he has an ominous choice to make an attempt to realize his fantasy. He can ORDER the states to enforce a BAN ON SOCIAL DISTANCING AND MASKING. He can make it a crime to protect yourself from infection. He can enforce measures that criminalize wearing a mask. Based upon Trump's batshit crazy logic, this makes perfect sense.
Trump WANTS the nation to be infected.
Trump WANTS his fans to die, and he wants the Dems to die.
He wants to turn the pandemic into a suicide pact.
He stated this and he implied this numerous times. His quack of a doctor, Atlas, promotes this. He's ordered the CDC to alter the stats to minimize and normalize the perceived effect of the pandemic. Trump is all-in on killing more Americans.
And he still gets a 40% approval rating???
