President Trump has rightly won praise from medical professionals and public health officials for taking tough action, even against leftist criticism, for effectively protecting the U.S. from the ravages of the coronavirus.

If the Left gets this C-virus going bad enough, they will shut down Trump’s rallies. This will be their next trick.
And if this continues through election day, you know what they will do to depress turnout.
Nice job of formatting Am Thinker text for posting here.

“If the Left gets this C-virus going bad enough, they will shut down Trump’s rallies. This will be their next trick.”
If it got bad and rallies were somehow shut down — Trump would find a way to have virtual rallies online. Not as much fun but it would not dampen support for Trump.
Such as?

If you build them, they will come. If you make it legal, they will do it. If you pay them for it, they will show up. What is so hard to understand here?
One Democrat already threatened to spread the Corona virus at Trump rallies.
