OK, don’t hate me because I am going to ask this question, given that I recently called for an end to the politicization of the COVID pandemic.
I gotta ask: Why are Republican politicians and political operatives — not to mention members of Donald Trump’s family — keep getting infected by the virus? Why aren’t more, um, Democratic pols and key aides to President-elect Biden getting the disease?
Oh, I think I know. It’s because GOP pols and key aides keep dismissing the measures the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention keep urging us to take to avoid getting sick; Democrats, meanwhile, are taking these measures seriously.
Could that be it? Oh, sure it is!
Is there a lesson to learn here? You bet there is.
There are several Democrats that have had it. MSM don’t put these names out there. I believe it’s been a couple of governors and senate and house me where. I haven’t kept a list, sorry.
Here is a summary and a list of US Senators and US House members: https://www.npr.org/2020/04/15/833692377/how-the-coronavirus-has-affected-individual-members-of-congress
