Day 35 of @NavigatorSurvey tracking poll: Since hitting it's peak in early April, there has been a steady decline in the number of people who say "the worst is yet to come." However, in recent days, that number has started to tick back up as worry over a "second wave" is high. 
Coverage of mask-wearing is being covered like the new "culture war" -- just another blue vs. red divide. But something is different here as 2/3 of the country is wearing masks regularly. The divide is really within the GOP as roughly half of Republicans are and half aren't.
And those mask-wearing Republicans hold attitudes in line with the rest of America on the degree we are in a crisis, worry over infection, and whether we should re-open. This puts them closer to Dems and Independents on these things than their non-mask wearing GOP counterparts.
When talking with friends and family, America seems to have settled on referring to it coronavirus over covid-19. Note that despite the big GOP push, just 4% of Americans are referring to it as the "Chinese virus" when talking about it with friends & family.
I know this slide will be a big shock to many, but very few Americans believe Trump's response to the pandemic is compassionate, and the numbers have gotten worse since mid-April. Particularly bad in heavily affected communities, including the Northeast and with people of color.
Lighter report today. We'll take a break for the weekend and come back with the next set of results Tuesday AM. Full results can be found here: navigatorresearch.org/navigating-cor…
