Being Stupid Republican And A Trump Sycophant

As the coronavirus or covid19 if you prefer is quite contagious more so than the usual viruses people encounter.  That being said, thanks to Donald Trump and his need to distract and blame everyone or anything for his abject failures it seems the stupid has reached pandemic portions amongst his followers as they hold Let's Give Each Other The Coronavirus Rally's.  Remember these are the same Darwin Award winners who claimed the the coronavirus was a hoax, a virus created by the Chinese government and the Democratic party as a means to hurt Donald Trump's reelection chances and believed that through magic thinking and denial those fifteen cases in February would be reduced to zero while there are currently more than 700,000 infected Americans. 


Rightwing media and Donald Trump have supported demonstrators but they appear to represent a minority opinion

A day after Donald Trump encouraged Americans to protest against strict public health measures aimed at limiting the spread of coronavirus, rallies were held in state capitals in Maryland, Texas and Ohio, with more planned for next week in other states.
Hundreds of people stood shoulder-to-shoulder at the Texas Capitol on Saturday, chanting “Fire Fauci!” as part of a protest organized by the conspiracy theory site InfoWars. Anthony Fauci is the top public health expert on the White House coronavirus taskforce.
In Maryland, protesters stayed inside their cars and honked their horns as they drove around the capital, Annapolis, to demand that Governor Larry Hogan “reopen Maryland”.
