Agree 100%. Kung flu is officially kaput after tonight... A few more weeks of rallies and it will be completely dropped from the news cycle...

I think if the rallies continue and there are more and more images of packed arenas without the ‘muh second wave’ numbers that are being pushed, more large crowd events (sports, concerts, churches) will feel safer about opening up and states will have a hard time keeping those rules in tact. If people can safely pack into an arena for a rally, they can go to watch a game or see a concert. Also, remember that Trump has a greater control of the news cycle as the frequency of the rallies increases.

People won't put up with that. There will eventually be too many to account for and the state will have to say "fuck it".

Kinda like my local grocery store. They haven't required masks since this all started, and just a couple weeks ago they tried to start mandating masks.

Didn't last long. Everyone ignored the sign and went in without one anyway and now the sign is tucked away in a corner.

There doesn't have to be an actual 2nd wave though. The fake news can just claim there is. "Trump rallies caused 2nd wave because they didn't wear masks (proceeds to cite fake data)... time to lock down!"

Right. I try to tell as and it likely applies to other states: when az reports deaths, it idoesnt mean for that day. Yesterday was 40 deaths but that includes any historical tests that got confirmed. They are reporting 3k cases a day but the death count has averaged around 20 a day since April!

The cases are going up but they can’t fake covid deaths as aggressively. The case influx shows how less lethal it is!
