Is it too tinfoil hat to suspect Republican relaxation on COVID as we get closer to election is a voter suppression tactic? Thinking a big spike will scare Dems into voting by mail (and possibly not be counted), while the Republican’s contingency will say the virus is fake anyways/show up disproportionately (more than the norm) in force to vote in person.

Also, Pubski seems too quiet on Wednesdays. Last week the comment count stayed at 4 for a while despite the top commenter (when hovered over the post) was someone I didn’t follow, nor contribute to the comment count until the 12 hours were up. Wigging me out, homes.

We'll see how things change now that Trump has tested positive. IF he gets seriously sick, things might get better. If he only gets minor symptoms, then I expect things will get worse.

Suspecting he’s more worse for wear than he’s letting on. Supposed to get back on the campaign trail this week. I can only imagine it will get worse with more travel.
