Trump and Covid
30,000 more people contract Covid 19 after attending Trump support rally’s. Are Republicans actually that dumb? Apparently they are.

Loads of Trump supporters on here using increasingly desperate arguments to defend the indefensible. I mean sports leagues have no crowds but Trump rallies are ok? Perhaps a MAGA hat can make you immune and a NY Yankees cap can't.
One argument put forward is the decline in death rate. This is because high risk people are shielding more its not because Covid stopped being deadly.
The lockdown vrs economy arguments are similarly redundant. The economies which are in the best economic health are those with the strictest lockdown rules. There is no good reason for Germany - which got covid early, has higher populalation density than America and shares land borders with many countries - to be doing so much better.
I wonder: Do Trump supporters even really believe their own arguments? Are they prepared to suspend disbelief and forgive any mistakes in defense of their icon?

@Burnley123 They have to believe.. Its an act of faith and America is a deeply religious country out of the big cities.😷

@Burnley123 trumpists seem to be very similar to flat earthers, except a lot more rabid. They use misleading arguments and can't even acknowledge even the most objective pieces of information.
Even definitions of words are used to justify their bad arguments. I had one on here try to play a game of semantics over whether or not masks and social distancing prevent transmission.
