Yep. Trump lies. America dies.
And yep, of course bootlickers like Michael Caputo will alter gov't issued scientific recommendations to protect Trump politically, to the nation's peril. 200k American deaths later, and it's still an ever-growing snowball of science-denialism in Trumpland.
Mark my words: Trump will announce a vaccine about a week before the election. There won't actually be a vaccine ready, but reality is no longer a constraint to the GOP. Neither will he win the election, but that won't matter to his base.
I've gamed out scenarios for the election, and there isn't really a "good" possibility. If you somehow still think this man will give up the presidency willingly, boy, are you in for a shock.
