Yes I have a basis and it was so Obvious that you even guest it, yes COVID fear. Fear of guns is another, fear of police... and just everything you can think of. See how full of shit you are?
"What purpose would it serve for the Democrats to keep the population living in fear?" Dear, fear is the oldest tool used to manipulate people in the history of man kind. Study history of the world. Democrats know exactly when to use it when they are threatened, not even the democratic leaders wear mask, they even got exposed for not wearing masks and nothing happened to them (like Pelosi going mask-less into the beauty salon). Not even your political leaders believe their own BS. Face it you are just a puppet controlled by them. What have the Republicans done? Trump came out with a vaccine and provided ventilators all over the world, something no other president did in the entire planet, stuff your one sided media will not show you puppet. BTW my mother, she is mid 60s nurse assistant works at a heavy traffic major hospital in Florida got COVID last week (after a whole year of working at the hospital), she is recovering and will be out within 4 days from the hospital where she is being treated.... I am sooo scared ROFL. When there is pandemic, the natural way, and best way, is to get the illness then let your body build an immune system and recover. If you live a healthy live, you exercise and do not smoke keep yourself healthy, then you have NOTHING to worry about. I am not worried about it. But you see there is a biggest issue that kills far more people in America than COVID, one that no one likes talks about, heart disease and obesity, they both go side by side. Yet, no one talks about it because there is NO POLITICAL GAIN from it. COVID came VERY conveniently during re-election and was the biggest factor for Biden winning the election...cause he promised people he had a plan but it was all BS at the end and then once president he confessed he could do nothing to stop it It is all a political game, your part is just a puppet.
