Doesn't it seem like everything Trump is doing of late, is to extend the life of this virus?

Hoarding PPE.
Allowing workers with previous exposure to the virus, to go back to work.
Cutting aid to WHO.

It seems like the GOP and Putin have been brainstorming, and have some evil plans to use this virus to help them win in November—because as of now, if we have honest voting, those bastards are going down hard.

who has earned his U.S. citizenship, still talks to his friends and family back in Russia. He tells me that the Russian people are all laughing their asses off at how easy it was/is for Putin to play Trump, the entire Republicon Party, and Trump/Republicon voters They also are amused by how easily Putin is destroying America and Democracy with out ever becoming involved, or firing a single missile or rocket......

When and if we finally see the un-edited, massively redacted Mueller report, I think we will see that Mueller conclusively reports much of the same opinion.........

that if Mueller hadn't been a life time republican, he would have given a far more forceful delivery of the document, and also might have "leaked" the complete copy to the Washington Post.......I truly believe that he gave a "soft" delivery, in order to try and give the Republicans what they needed to get rid of Trump, but not enough to take down the entire Republican Party which he had loved all his life time.......

I think it is important to Remember that Al Franken got the ball rolling, or there never would have been any of the info investigated or revealed......

It also makes any intelligent person wonder, what nefarious, corrupt, illegal things the Republicons have done, or are still continuing to do, that we will never know about....

Who bought millions of shares of the Pharmaceutical company that makes CIPRO.
Two days later, he announced that he was ordering huge stockpiles across the nation of the drug Cipro in case of anthrax attack.
The stock immediately tripled in price.
He sold his stock, tripling his investment in less than six days......

that Trump's and the GOP's intent is to screw this crisis up as much as possible, so it's easier for them to steal every election in November.

No one person or organization could be this inept and counter-productive by accident. Right?

kill as many Americans as possible.

I think he's trying to create as large a catastrophe as possible. It's the only way he can enact Martial Law and cancel the election.

Confiscating PPE enroute to much needed locations? Yeah, this is intentional and meant to kill many of us.

money, and that means opening everything up.
He wants this virus gone, so he'll pretend it is. He wants to hush numbers. No testing equals no new cases, so it's all good to go. Our deaths are just secondary damage.
