It’s quite possible that the coup plotters decided on a pandemic once they realized the impeachment would fail. They were looking for a flu strain, like H1N1 or Hong Kong flu that they could blame, and they latched onto COVID for convenience more than anything else. For Fauci and his side to cheer for another year of lockdown even as vaccinations are about to start is completely logical - if and only if this is not about medical concern.
Coup plotters include the notoriously traitorous Dems, Russia, communist China, (likely) Marxist Venezuela, the communist-revolutionary organizations ANITFA and so-called “Black Lives Matter”.
One thing I do believe is that every day we get locked down, the weaker Americans get. Lockdowns have almost no effect on the virus but causes the rate of other illnesses to skyrocket. It also increases the number of overdoses and suicides.
