On MSNBC just now, paraphrased, "Some R voters do not think COVID is real"

I mean, jesus christ, how many millions of gallons of Trump Kool-Aid do you have to drink to think THE COVID-19 VIRUS IS NOT REAL ?

Mass genocidal delusion. Courtesy of Trump, the Republicans and their enablers at FauxNews

but because of all the information we have that is not sourced from the traitor and his traitorous group.

Believing it is real and bad means their leader lied to them, maybe killed them, they cant ever go there. These are easily influenced people who have hungered for a fascist, mass killing racist misogynist homophobe to lead them, and they will NEVER let go.

The only reason there are more cases is because they are testing more people. I can't quite wrap my head around this. We have 19 deaths in our small county and cases rise from 1000 to 1800 daily in our state. A high school classmate died this morning, yet our Governor let the mask mandate expire... No joke we have seriously considered moving to Canada if Trump is reelected.

They think the hospitals are putting covid on deaths not caused by covid. That its just like a flu. The president will be fine.

It was hard with someone firmly in belief that its not that bad to explain otherwise. Said people they knew who had it was just like flu.

I think unless someone close or them has a bad case they won't believe. And they don't believe the deaths think hospitals are lying to get extra money.

Will that get televised?

Some R voters will never be able to accept that they have been living and believing a fraud their whole lives, so that is why they were so attracted to tRUMP. He carried on their myth.

As opposed to them who only believe what they are told by Q-anon, Trump, and Alex Jones.

And no amount of evidence will convince them that this is anything other than a big Democrat hoax to make the president look back and put Hillary in office.
