Trump may not carry the virus, but he will spread this virus throughout the country with his propaganda and incompetence.
Trump is telling his voters the virus is a hoax. People who for the past three years blindly followed a fake show, a president who wasn't really a president. People who believe the real news is the fake news. People who believe lies are the truth. People, who for three years have lived in a manufactured reality. They will believe this is a hoax.
Trump voters will not take precautions against the virus. They will not wash their hands. If they are not feeling well, they will not go to a doctor, they will go to work or get on a plane. They will not believe or listen to the real news, only what Trump and Fox News tells them.
This is extremely dangerous. Trump is betting this virus will fade away with warm weather like the regular flu does. Maybe it will, maybe it won't. If it doesn't, Trump voters by the millions will help spread the virus because they are weak minded fools who believe everything Trump says.
On Feb 15th I posted this: Trump has deregulated at every level and he has gutted every government agency, including the agencies that protect us. I predicted it would lead to an economic collapse. Our entire government has been hollowed out. He has put in place corrupt, unqualified people in charge of our agencies.
I don't know how bad this virus will get. I do not know how much it will damage the economy. What I do know is this virus exposed and proved my warning, prediction is justified. You can see the massive incompetence of Trump and his merry band of corrupt criminals.
This is just the beginning of what is coming our way if we don't remove Trump. For three years he has had the most unbelievable good luck I have ever seen in my life. When that runs out and it may be happening now, look out.
Trump calling this virus a hoax is how the brain of a serial killer works. Trump doesn't care if people die. Trump is a sociopath without a doubt.

The beauty of it is that these are largely fear based morans that usually thrive on this kind of thing, but they have to keep their mouths shut! If this happened the last year or so of Obama's presidency, they would be going berserk over it, despite our being much better prepared.
I'd love to hear from members of the pandemic response team Trump got rid of. Just what system did they have in place and what measures would they have taken? I suspect they would have been all over it as soon as word of this virus got out. I'd say those HHS workers that dealt with the quarantined patients without protection, would likely had some proper briefings and training ahead of that.
