>>Those currently criticizing Trump ought to be careful lest their posturing is let down by this virus seeming to be less deadly
>>Has the level discourse descended to the point that you are seriously suggesting that there are people who will be "let down" if this virus turns out to be "less deadly?"
Absolutely. Look up Schumer's statements today. His behavior is absolutely disgusting (your word) at a time of fear and tendency to panic if the disease and administrative response turns out not to justify his piling on.
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
