        Me yesterday: "And if Trump sees Fox’s protest coverage and endorses the effort, social distancing will become even more politically polarized. The hard-won progress in the fight against the virus could evaporate in an instant," leading to new COVID wave.https://www.mediamatters.org/fox-news/fox-news-promoting-protests-against-social-distancing-measures-god-bless-them …

        Trump thinks an increase of 50% is doubling apparently and also he's still watching television and tweeting about it. Left, Fox's Outnumbered, 12:18 p.m. Right, Trump, 12:30 p.m.pic.twitter.com/D9MFM12mXC

        He is actually fomenting Civil War. Calling for the overthrow of a duly elected government. That seems treasonous to me.

        Apparently the only part of the constitution the GOP is concerned with is the 1stA, the 2ndA, and stopping women’s access to the 14thA, as it pertains to abortion.
