- Americans who now find themselves politically divided over seemingly everything are now forming two very different views of another major issue: the dangers of the new coronavirus.
Democrats are about twice as likely as Republicans to say the coronavirus poses an imminent threat to the United States, according to a Reuters/Ipsos poll conducted this week.
And more Democrats than Republicans say they are taking steps to be prepared, including washing their hands more often or limiting their travel plans.
Let the market decide.
So it's a measurable divide, but honestly not as wide as I thought it would be. Still, pretty definitive proof of Trump's perversion of the presidency. Imagine caring more about your re-election prospects than the health of over 300 million people. He knows that if he loses, he'll be arrested and charged with campaign finance law violation (Stormy Daniels payoffs). The statute of limitations won't expire until the end of 2021.
I don’t think he’ll be charged with campaign finance law violations, not do I think he believes he will, thus motivating his behavior. I do think that he cares more about his personal interests, and that alone is enough to motivate his actions. It’s not self preservation, -it’s ego imho.
