What if we convinced Trump's base that their push to repudiate masks is really....

......a double-tricky strategy encouraged by liberals to cull Trump's base?

Maybe their leadership has been tricked into this strategy by cagey evil Dems? Tricking Trump et al into this show of false bravado, calling the masks a deep state plot to take away their jobs, freedoms, etc.

Would it be possible to turn the RW herd TOWARD personal safety through a message strategy?

Let them know we're happy they are killing each other off -- fewer votes for Trump!

That is supposed to make it safer for both employees and everyone else to be out, along with the distancing and other sanitary measure. So idiots are blowing off part of what was supposed to convince people to make it work.

Congratulations idiots. These businesses you think you give a shit about? If there was a chance they might open and scrape by on what was sure to be reduced revenue, you've cut that by probably more than they can handle.
