Why stir panic with caravans of criminals, burning cities, voter fraud, rapists - and not COVID? [View all]

Because in Trump's mind, there is good panic that supports Trump, and bad panic that doesn't.

Good panic is iron-clad truth in Trump's mind, because he invents it and never stops telling you so.

Bad panic is Fake News! in Trump's mind. Media hype designed to harm Trump because everyone is out to get him.

Say what you will, he's consistent. You just have to face the raw data and recognize its significance.
