6. media is not doing its job. RW used ebola in 2014 elections and got 9 senate seats

and a bunch of congress by scaring the base and blaming it on obama all that oct - then it was gone from RW media right after the election. it worked for republicans and they would have noticed, whether the GOP establishment had anything or not to do with initiating limbaugh etc to talk about it all month

there were signs in RW media that trump was going to use the 2019 congo ebola event, while social media (russians?) was used there to get locals to attack and disrupt ebola clinics. rw media was suggesting congolese immigrants were joining the 'caravans' 'attacking' the border. where did those stories originate? common media - limbaugh's transcripts are available out there.

then along came COVID and it was probably not just total stupidity/incompetence/denial and sounds like the dumbfucks in the white house were stupid enough to think they could use this like ebola - something controllable they could use to rouse the authoritarian base and get idiot frightened dems to vote for them.

trump is stupid enough to get talked into delaying action so that it could be used to delay or cancel the elections, whether it was an adviser like limbaugh or miller or jared or putin
