Trump Should Call Rallies “PROTESTS” To Show COVID-Shaming Hypocrisy.

Liberal-progressive types were overjoyed that the Chinese Wuhan virus plague and fears of mass gatherings were keeping President Trump off the campaign trail where he couldn’t shout over the media filter and Joe Biden in the basement where his senior moments were relatively unseen.

Now that is about to end with a Trump rally in Tulsa that has garnered over a million ticket requests while Joe Biden would have trouble filling a VFW hall if he could even remember what “VFW” stood for. The prospect of a vigorous Trump rocking tens of thousands in venues that only he, rock stars, and professional sports teams could fill while Biden struggles to fill a bingo hall and speak in complete sentences, has Democrats panicked so they have decided to play the COVID-19 card.

President Trump accused the media and liberals of trying to “COVID-shame” his campaign into canceling a planned rally, saying his critics didn’t express similar health concerns over massive protests against racial injustice.

The president tweeted that the “far-left” news media “had no COVID problem with the Rioters & Looters destroying Democrat-run cities.” But he said the media is “trying to COVID-Shame us on our big Rallies. Won’t work!”

One is touched by the left’s sudden concern for the health and safety of Trump supporters and stunned by the magnitude of their hypocrisy. Trump supporters gathering en masse is a public health menace but flooding the streets with terrorist groups like Antifa and Black Lives Matter is not only not dangerous but gives you some kind of self-righteous immunity from infection, according to a letter signed by a group of quack physicians who insisted that fighting racism is worth the risk and no precautions need be taken but that a Trump rally is nothing but a reckless “super-spreader of disease and death that should be prohibited:

A group of over 1,000 “health experts” signed a letter supporting the ongoing Black Lives Matter protests and riots but are against any conservative, working American or Christian protest gathering.

These dishonest hacks try to explain how the dangerous Black Lives Matter protests and riots are good for society and acceptable during a pandemic.

But these same leftists describe conservative protests against COVID-19 lockdowns as racist and dangerous and should not be allowed,

These doctors see social injustice involving African-Americans as perfect end-justifies-the means rioting, arson, and protests while the alleged perpetrators of the injustice, white Trump supporters, deserve to be cast into the outer darkness. They actually consider alleged social justice and racism as a greater public health threat than any virus so their sanctioned protests are permissible. As Insider.com noted:

“One in every 1,000 Black men and boys can expect to be killed by police in this country,” Dr. Maia Majumder, an epidemiologist at Harvard Medical School, told Vox. “To me, this clearly illustrates why police brutality is a public health problem; anything that causes mortality at such a scale is a public health problem.”…

“White supremacy is a lethal public health issue that predates and contributes to COVID-19,” a letter signed by over 1,000 public health experts said.

Now if you believe that white supremacy is a lethal health threat then you can believe anything and justify anything. As former White House Chief of Staff and incompetent Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel famously opined, a crisis is a terrible thing to waste They see the perfect storm of Chinese Wuhan virus lockdowns and urban riots as the perfect way to overthrow our culture, our democracy and Western civilization itself and to end the resistance of President Donald Trump by ousting him with the poster child for senility, Joe Biden. This is what these health experts said in their letter:

Staying at home, social distancing, and public masking are effective at minimizing the spread of COVID-19. To the extent possible, we support the application of these public health best practices during demonstrations that call attention to the pervasive lethal force of white supremacy.

However, as public health advocates, we do not condemn these gatherings as risky for COVID-19 transmission. We support them as vital to the national public health and to the threatened health specifically of Black people in the United States. We can show that support by facilitating safest protesting practices without detracting from demonstrators’ ability to gather and demand change.

This should not be confused with a permissive stance on all gatherings, particularly protests against stay-home orders. Those actions not only oppose public health interventions, but are also rooted in white nationalism and run contrary to respect for Black lives. Protests against systemic racism, which fosters the disproportionate burden of COVID-19 on Black communities and also perpetuates police violence, must be supported.
