Something doesn’t smell right. The number of newly confirmed cases of COVID-19 in the U.S. each day has been declining, as has the number of deaths. This is great news, and we should be hoping that the falling numbers are a sign that the pandemic is beginning to subside. But the mainstream media has been relentlessly pumping out stories that warn of “disaster” if the lockdowns are lifted “too soon”. According to the mainstream media, by “ignoring science” we are inviting a “second wave” which will be even deadlier than the first one. And it is certainly true that as we end the lockdowns more people will get exposed to COVID-19, but right now I do not know of a single hospital in the entire country that is currently being overwhelmed by this pandemic. As long as our hospitals can handle it, there is no reason to continue the lockdowns.

But the mainstream media seems desperate to keep the lockdowns going, and so they keep telling us that we are “inviting disaster” by ending them.

So why is the mainstream media doing this?

Could it be possible that they are trying to hurt President Trump politically? Without a doubt, Trump’s poll numbers have suffered during the lockdowns, and if the U.S. economy does not bounce back by November it is certainly going to be tough for him to win.

And at this point the mainstream media is not even trying to hide how much they hate Trump. For many of them, getting rid of Trump is priority number one, and they will exploit any angle that they can to try to make that happen.

Hurting President Trump also explains why states with Democrat governors are still imposing strict rules about social distancing and such, or are easing restrictions slowly so as to keep the peasants calm while still impeding recovery.

If they keep the lockdown going, the economy continues to tank. If the economy continues to tank, the voters might abandon Trump. If the voters abandon Trump, we become the United states of Dipshits under Dimocrat rule [NOT governance].
