if/when high profile deaths start... athletes, artists, politicians...

shit may finally be real for trump and his cult. May. still no guarantee, since they disbelieve even the obvious if they are told to.

The high profile death in Italy reported just now made me think of this. And a BBall player and Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson's contact of COVID-19.

1. Only if they are GOP sports figures and celebs.

Jon Voight, Ted Nugent, etc. The moron's cult are not fans of the "Librul Hollywood Elite".

2. Remember when senile Ronnie and simpering Nancy only became aware of AIDS when Rock Hudson died?

3. It's hit the Senate now via a staffer for Sen. Maria Cantwell.

And it won’t make a difference to trump if/when high profile republicans die.

7. That's my thought too. Rock Hudson and AIDS

It was a big f***ing joke to the Reagan crowd that only affected [insert pejorative]s until one of RR's Hollywood buddies died of it. Then suddenly they started getting serious about it.

Some big name, or a whole lot of grandmas, is what it'll take to shift them. If anything.
