This is so irresponsible. But I don't know why we would expect any better from the Trump team at this point.

(7,431 posts)he's taking orders from Trump, who got plenty of flack from his direct tweets regarding Michigan and Whitmer. So Trump is now using Atlas to spread his venom.
Atlas does not have expertise in epidemiology, nor politics. So he must have gotten a phone call from Trump to be his mouthpiece.

(8,769 posts)knowing that the elderly, ill, disabled, poor, and minority populations will have a vast majority of the deaths and subsequent morbidities.
Plus there are economic opportunities in the pandemic itself and then in the vaccum of deaths and bankruptcies; despicable and in intent anyway criminal.

This is an explicit call for insurrection against the Michigan Govt. and he isnt trump with his "immunity".
