Extremely depressing to realize that with many voters, the Dems were/are going to punished for doing the responsible things to stem the tide of the pandemic, while the GOP whose reckless behavior is responsible for countless deaths, are most likely going to be rewarded.

The head of the GOP is literally on tape saying, 'I like to play this shit down. I don't want to upset the stock market'. The GOP pushes constant anti-vax stuff and anti-science bullshit.
But because people are selfish and some of the mitigation stuff requires some personal sacrifice and (minor) inconveniences and the GOP message is, 'fuck it. you don't have to any of that,' that's very appealing to a lot of people.
Another big problem is that many voters are stupid and poorly informed, so they blame structural issues (that Dems inherit from Republicans) on the Dems...and believe something like the governor is responsible for gas prices.
