Remember in August/September 2008 how the democrats and globalists used a potential financial crisis (created by them) to threaten president Bush with a total economic collapse?
President Bush caved and they used the mortgage loan crisis they created as a tool (weapon?) to extort billions of dollars from taxpayers and influence the 2008 presidential election.
This coronavirus scare is a different type of crisis but I see the same people using it in the same way as the 2008 crisis.
Billions of taxpayer dollars will be flowing into many the same pockets as happened in 2008 while the democrats and their captive media use the crisis to scare voters and (they hope) influence the 2020 election in their favor.
They figure they have nothing to lose.
The "scare tactic" worked quite well for them in 2008, no one who tried to carry out the coup against president Trump has been punished for their treachery so why not go for it?
A lot of upside for them and almost no downside.
They don't give a democrat rat's butt one way or the other if it hurts people or the nation.
You are right on. They are seizing this opportunity to ruin the economy, put people out of work and bankrupt. Then have all their programs to help the people that they ruined financially, and giving money to their friends that run the programs.
