re: Conspiracy Theory...

Add on the idea the push for continued shutdowns is an attempt to provide cover for Biden's campaign. He clearly is showing signs of dementia and is a terrible candidate. He would get absolutely demolished in debates against Trump and he has nothing of substance to offer when it comes to policy. He can't even consistently string together coherent sentences and ideas. The longer the shutdown can go on with prohibiting public gatherings/rallies/debates up to the election for "public health reasons," the more the media can shelter Biden from public scrutiny. Trump debating Biden would be an absolute bloodbath that the media couldn't prevent viewers from seeing real-time, thus limiting their control of the narrative. Add on the push for vote-by-mail and you start to see a whole other, more sinister, motivation for the response to this situation.
