I'm starting to fear that for Trump supporters to turn on their cult leader, several of their family members will have to die first. Right now they just see the Coronavirus as something that's "happening to everyone else." It's like these people have no object permanence; the virus doesn't stop existing just because you don't know anyone who has it.
Well, that's really always been true of many Republican supporting types. I always think back to the example of Rob Portman finally favoring LGBTQ rights only after his son came out. There is an incapability of understanding past one's own experience in the GOP, and in the Trump era it has only been exacerbated.
