    There seems to be a division, at Fox and on the larger right, between the business lobby and the ethno-nationalist. Of the two, the ethno-nationalists are the more serious about dealing with coronavirus.https://twitter.com/brianstelter/status/1237172434131922945 …

        I saw someone say this about the Iran crisis but it applies here. the fate of the world depends on Trump listening to the 8 pm racist instead of the 9 pm racist.

        Replying to @HeerJeet

        One thing that was clear in the January response by people like Senator Cotton and his allies was that the ethnonationalists, as you put it, see this as an opportunity to delink the Chinese and U.S. economies to allow a direct conflict.

        The ethno-nationalists can at least claim that they care about old white people like themselves.

        Replying to @HeerJeet

        The ethno-nationalists see it as an opportunity to oppress poor people and immigrants, and the business folks are worried about the equity and bond markets.

        If Tucker seems more ~serious~ about the coronavirus, it’s because he’s trying to convince his audience that it was manufactured in a Chinese lab to attack us https://twitter.com/mattgertz/status/1237170089637576708?s=21 … https://twitter.com/MattGertz/status/1237170089637576708 …

        I agree with @mtaibb on this who once observed that liberals are fearful/obsessed with technology run amok, while right-wingers are obsessed with fear of vermin
