A couple I knew in college, basically they'd been together since elementary school, moved to rural Minnesota to live their newfound conservative principles. When COVID hit, they were vocally anti-vaccine and antimask, even crusading to ban masks from their little community.

The whole family got sick, and the husband died on a government-provided respirator. The wife and her grown kids still blame Biden.

Well they can't blame themselves. That's a sign of weakness!!!
