Someone is linking it to Patriotism. I saw a MAGA hatted older man being interviewed. I think it was in FL. He said that the elderly should be proud to give their lives for the American economy. So they are (may be) hanging on to some older people by making them think that selfishly trying to stay alive is paramount to being a traitor.

That kind of nonesense is easy to say, damned hard to live.

The red-hatted maggot as a species is invariably a creme-puff masquerading as a hard roll.

Doing nothing to stem the pandemic means the rest of the economy will be in critical condition forever.

It's hard to believe that he has any followers left.
Off topic, but has Zeta left your island yet? I hope the damage was not too severe.
PS, I'm a grandparent now too. Elise turned 7 months yesterday.
