And this my friends was in the past WEEK. Apparently Grandma and Grandpa been watching Fox News and hearing the rhetoric from Trump and his minions that seniors are expendable. Hasn't gone over well. He was already hemorrhaging educated suburban women and Independents. This will be his epitaph.

“The latest Morning Consult poll found that 65-and-older voters prioritized defeating the coronavirus over healing the economy by nearly a 6-to-1 ratio,” he wrote. “And over the past month, they’ve become the group most disenchanted with Trump’s handling of the crisis. In mid-March, seniors were more supportive of Trump than any other age group (plus-19 net approval). Now, their net approval of the president has dropped 20 points and is lower than any age group outside of the youngest.”​

 
What is lost in one place is found in another.
Even if the polling is true, which I always dispute when lying lefties cite obscure sources, how much more popular will Trump be when he successfully gets the nation to get back to work and give non seniors jobs and hope again?
He will be very popular when businesses open back up and people can get back to work and this form of house arrest is over.

Not surprising. His policy of pushing reopening stands to kill a lot of seniors. They may not agree with trump and Lt Gov Dan Patrick, thinking and in Patrick's case saying in an interview that "
'There are more important things than living'Texas lt. governor on reopening state: 'There are more important things than living'
Not a good thing, when the government makes decisions that could effect large numbers of American seniors, basically saying, the government has decided what is best for you senior citizens, and we have come to the conclusion that there are more important things than you living. It is not like trump is the leader of a big tent party. Seniors may just be shocked that he is leading a big tarp party and just do not want to be the ones covered by the tarp.
 
24 states have now set up or are setting up COVID-19 hospitals in the states about to open up. These are preemptive to support the possible need should a spike be seen. As of today they are fully staffed. Tommarow begins the great experiment as no one has ever done this. We will soon find out who's plans will work and who's plans will fail..

The crack keeps widening.

Well, there goes Texas seniors. Utterly deplorable. :mad:

“There are more important things than living, and that’s saving this country for my children and grandchildren and saving this country for all of us,” he said Monday.

Going with the Polls again like in 2016?

From the OP link's source article:

>> The latest Morning Consult poll found that 65-and-older voters prioritized defeating the coronavirus over healing the economy by nearly a 6-to-1 ratio. And over the past month, they’ve become the group most disenchanted with Trump’s handling of the crisis. In mid-March, seniors were more supportive of Trump than any other age group (plus-19 net approval). Now, their net approval of the president has dropped 20 points and is lower than any age group outside of the youngest Americans.​
Those findings were matched by a new NBC/WSJ poll, which tested the presidential matchup between Trump and Joe Biden. Among seniors 65 and older, Biden led Trump by 9 points, 52 to 43 percent. That’s a dramatic 16-point swing from Hillary Clinton’s showing in the 2016 election; she lost seniors by 7 points to Trump (52-45 percent).​
Seniors are among the most engaged voters in the country (71 percent went to the polls in 2016), and were critical to Trump’s victory. They’ve remained supportive of him for much of his presidency. And they’re counting on the president to protect them at a particularly precarious moment. If Trump’s desire to quickly reopen the economy ends up backfiring, they’ll be the first to abandon him and deal his reelection prospects a crippling blow.<<​

That's his base. Old people.

They're dying like flies now. Of course they aren't going to like him anymore. They see that he and his followers have no problem with killing tens thousands of people most being those old people.

I'm sure they know by now that his word means nothing so when he tells them he won't let them die, they don't believe it. They shouldn't. So far there are over 40 thousand dead.

We finally see where they draw the line with trump, when it's a matter of their own life and death.

If the election is honest and fair, trump doesn't stand a chance in November.

But they share his views on China, while the Democrats not so much....

We know who REALLY came up with the idea of death panels.
 
All we need to these anti-lockdowners is a simple graph of Lives Lost v GDP Growth....

How many Grandmas for 1% GDP Growth? something like that...

The majority of those over age 65 have lost a friend or family member, or have one in ICU. They see the cavalier attitude about their expendability from Trump and just about every last one of his supporters.

Election fair and honest? Your lips to God's ear, but I don't have a great deal of hope in that regard.

The beat goes on.

This is funny. Out of one poll mentioned by the original article, the wsj/nbc poll 11 of 900 were 65 or older.
