If someone thinks the shutdown was a good idea, or even a necessary evil, then you think they are on the left.
Trump however agreed with the shutdown and still believes as do I that it saved 1.5 million lives. But Trump also acknowledges that the cure can't be worse than the disease, and the lock down can't continue indefinitely.
It's a bad litmus test you have. It doesn't extend to other issues. And you've excluded about 75% of Republicans from your definition of "right".
"Similarly, the Navigator Research polling found that 51 percent of Republicans agreed that we are currently doing the right thing when it comes to social distancing, compared with 24 percent who favor more aggressive social distancing and just 21 percent who want fewer restrictions.1"
No you’ve just made COVID shut down a litmus test for what you think is conservative.
But most conservatives do not share that perspective. But in the liberal sites I frequent the fear is pretty universal - to the point that bringing up good, solid information to the contrary got me banned even though I was not breaking the rules, but just saying things (and backing it up with links) suggesting this is not what CNN says it is.
I think their heads would explode if they had to watch a few Laura Ingraham angles.
