Can the Republicans win being irresponsible (Coronaville, What’s Next)

They closer we get to the election, the more irresponsible they seem to become. The host for this episode is Jay Fidell. The guests for this episode are Tim Apicella, Cynthia Lee Sinclair and Winston Welch.

Our panel will discuss Trump’s new herd immunity approach and what kind of reception it is getting around the country, the new spikes which are popping up in so manhy places and states, the pauses by two of the companies doing vaccine trials, the efficacy and availability of the drug cocktails Trump took last week, and whether he and his White House staffers are really out of the woods. We will also discuss the strategy and effect of his various rallies and the resulting likelihood of further contagion. And we’ll discuss the kidnapping conspiracies in Michigan and Virginia. As much as Trump would like to change the subject, covid remains central in this election. At the same time, his rejection of the system and the result if it goes against him, as well as the shenanigans he and his followers are trying and will try in the election are of great concern. And who will force him out of the White House if he refuses to leave. What issues will he bring before the courts, and what will the courts, including the Supreme Court do in the determination of the election.
