    We dont HAVE to blame Trump. You do you, though Carry on.

    For God's sake--he said it was a hoax when he knew full well that it was an airborne, often fatal disease (see Woodward, Rage). And that was only the beginning. I don't blame Trump for the existence of the virus, but for his disastrous, dishonest response and the resulting hundreds of thousands of casualties. Leaders should take responsibility.

    All the blue voters I know have been very, very careful and are not traveling. It seems all the rabid anti-maskers are militantly red, but that's just my impression.

    Same here. The only people we see who are not wearing masks are trumpers. It is beyond stupid.

    How do you know the only people not wearing masks are trumpers? Because they aren’t wearing masks?

    trump IS to blame. Even now he is planning large Christmas parties at the White House and based on previous behavior you can be sure there will be no masks. How many times have you seen him in a mask? I can count on one hand. Those who follow him do as he does. As he said, this is a hoax.

    I also blame trump for the lack of availability of vaccinations. See Wisconsin is to get 49,725 doses and we have over 450,000 health care workers. That will go far. Remember this later. He was asked and he declined to get more. Now all is parceled out to other countries. He definitely dropped the ball.

    When they tell you it is a hoax and their political right to now wear a mask.

    Recently met 2 guys and went around them. Asked me what was the problem and that was their response.

    All one needs to do is look at pictures of the crowds at any trump super spreader rally compared to the Biden victory speech crowds.

    Or pictures from the crowd at the republican convention this summer. There's literally like only half a dozen people wearing masks there and there's nothing socially distanced about anyone.

    So by that reasoning, these are all right wing, deplorable Trumpers?
