Trump Botches COVID: People at Home, Angry, Out of Work, Bored, Mail-In Voting Surges--All His Fault

.

This is all Trump's fault.


If he had better addressed this pandemic, the death and illness rates would be significantly lower, businesses would be less impacted, less people would be out of work, trapped at home, many without jobs and struggling to get by, many bored because they are trapped, etc.


This whole effect leads people to read and watch TV more, since they are not commuting as much, going places, and most not working as much. Others industries that are tech related and can easily telecommute find their work increasing because those trapped at home are working more to fill the days of monotony. Both sets resenting this whole situation.



The GOP wins when there is gerrymandering, vote suppression and low voter turnouts. They are freaking out because people are now engaged and want to vote by mail because they don't want to go to a polling place where people, ranging between 1 in 50 -- 1 in 500, who use these machines are COVID positive. People are not inconvenienced by driving to a polling place, finding time to vote with their employers, and the ease of registering and voting does not cut into their newly found Trump-induced COVID lifestyles.


Trump brought on this vote by mail scenario and he and his team are primarily to blame.
