‘Magically Protected’: Why Hardcore Trump Supporters Won’t Wear Masks At Rally | All In | MSNBC

  1. You can’t reason somebody out of a position they didn’t reason themselves into. These reality-TV celebrity cultists did not use rationale to make their choices. They used feelings.

    1. I was indoctrinated into evangelical Christianity as a child, but now I’m an atheist. So it is possible to reason out of a position that was initially arrived at in an unjustified/irrational manner; however, it’s not easy and takes honesty.

    2. It’s also a basic dumbing down of our understanding of politics: Left/Right, Liberal/Conservative, Evil/Good, Black/White, Them/Us.

      Trumps last 100 days
      120,000 Americans lost to Covid-19
      Over 700,000 AMERICANS are recovering from the debilitating disease
      Over 2million infected
      40 million unemployed
      Now we’re in a recession
      National unrest cost to coast

      40% of US deaths are nursing homes, 40,000 people
      Last week Columbia University’s report, had Trump acted 7days earlier 40,000 US LIVES could have been saved
      The same week, the President said he wouldn’t have done anything differently to combat covid-19.

    1. T Dawg Burning Witches. Excellent all-girl power metal. Too bad Sonia recently left the band, great shredder.

    1. @jason blum everybody on earth is racist… commonly when they are majority… for example…. you may check Africa, and ask all the colored people there what they think about uncolored people, or ask indian hindus what they think about indian bhudist or muslims, or ask Japanese what they think about chinesse imigrant, or ask chinese what they think about japanese.. the list go on and on 😅

    2. @Eggèè Aja I’m chinese…..I love japanese people…especially the JAV actresses!

  2. If I were their insurance company I would refuse to pay or cancel their policy . I doubt trump would qualify as a pre existing condition. ICU and ventilators costs hundreds of thousands of dollars.

    1. Mignon Simpson healthcare workers should refuse to care for them.

    1. I’m not part of the cult however I have figured out COVFEFE COVered in FEtid FEces and COVering FEderal FElonies for Spanky MAGA My Administration Getting Arrested resist

    1. U mean trump himself bcs he said he is the chosen one. I don’t think they’re really Christians or kn Jesus. God is a jealous God n he says thou shall not worship any other God but me

    2. @John Days where’d you get that from? I think the heightened emotions made people forget about masks.. a lot worse them too. Republicans seem to not believe in measurable facts and just wish a lot.

  3. These idiots are all gonna go back home and blame anything and everything for catching the coronavirus except this one night only hotspot they went to 😂

    1. Thats what the non disclosures for 😉 if someone tells me sign this before… im like nah man thanks

    2. they’ll say it’s the flu, even while dying from the blood clots and other damaged organs caused by covid 19

    1. Jim Jones killed around 1,000 innocent people. Trump’s death tally due to his mishandling of the virus is *much* higher.

    2. @MegaChickenfish – 💯.

  4. Is this the same “magic” that was supposed to make the Coronavirus disappear by Easter? 🤔 😛😝

  5. If trump thought they’d all be safe he wouldn’t be having them sign wavers. They’re so dam stupid that they don’t even realize that.

    1. @kare more They don’t think critically, they listen to Trump’s words but then never look at his actions.

    2. biden cannot get one person to show up. trump had 1.4 million register. thousands pouring in last 2 days
      The pandemic is fake. Here is proof:
      Here is two Doctors that run five Major Medical Covid-19 included Clinics and the 47 minute video they explain in detail how the corona virus is a big giant money scam:

  6. Just when you think Conservatives couldn’t do anything more stupid ,
    ” Here , hold my meth , alright Billy Bob , let her rip !”

    1. The problem is that some people on the right really like and want fascism! Can you believe it?
