"Yahoo News/YouGov coronavirus poll: Most Americans reject anti-lockdown protests


An overwhelming majority of Americans, Republicans included, are rejecting right-wing protests — encouraged by President Trump — to immediately “reopen” the country in the midst of the world’s largest and deadliest coronavirus outbreak, according to a new Yahoo News/YouGov poll.

The survey, conducted April 17 to April 19, found that a full 60 percent of the public opposes the largely pro-Trump protesters whose calls for governors to “liberate” their states by lifting lockdown measures have attracted intense media attention in recent days — and whose message the president amplified Friday in a series of all-caps “LIBERATE” tweets about three swing states: Minnesota, Michigan and Virginia.

Only 22 percent of Americans say they support the protesters. Despite Trump’s messaging, even Republicans oppose the protests 47 percent to 36 percent. Asked whether they agree or disagree with Trump’s “LIBERATE” tweets, only a quarter of Americans say they agree.

The margins aren’t close. Seventy-one percent of Americans — and 56 percent of Republicans — say they are more concerned about lifting the coronavirus restrictions too quickly than lifting them too slowly. Only 29 percent of Americans say the opposite. The same number (71 percent) say they want public health officials “to be fully able to test and trace new cases and outbreaks” before reopening; only 29 percent say they want the country to reopen “as soon as possible to prevent further economic damage.” And more than twice as many Americans say the U.S. is not conducting enough coronavirus testing to track future outbreaks of the virus (52 percent) than say it is (22 percent).

Overall, 65 percent of Americans say that Trump could have reduced the damage done by the coronavirus — either “a lot” (41 percent) or “somewhat” (24 percent) — if he had acted sooner."

The total number of protesters may be small. But the public’s dismissive attitude toward them reflects a deeper sentiment: Americans strongly disagree with those who claim the country is ready to reopen for business.

What is truly disgusting about these brain dead bastards is that their leader in cheat, ie Trump would rather see every damn one of em drop dead, than risk not having a good economy to stand on this Nov. See this is what happens when you take credit for another man's labor, ie Obama and then do nothing else but tweet and hold Klan rallies for the last 3 fuckin years. These brain dead bastards are willing to risk their lives and ours for a white bitch that could care less about any of us, let alone this country. All that whore cares about is a fake economy and Wall Street shining again...which it will not, thank God.

Only 6 more months until he is voted out of the Whitehouse. Democrats should control congress and the Whitehouse by the end of the year. Then will see what the Trumptards do then.

I'm a little worried about the worst of that bunch. They are liable to become violent after their Orange God is defeated.

are rejecting right-wing protests — encouraged by President Trump — to immediately “reopen” the country

LIE #1. Trump has never said to IMMEDIATELY just reopen the country flat open!

in the midst of the world’s largest and deadliest coronavirus outbreak

BULLSHIT LIE #2. OP, if you are so fucking stupid to think this little virus is the worst plague or pandemic to ever strike the planet, you've got more knots in your head that a 4X4 of pine!

He was hoping. Each day, that hope comes into contact with just a bit more reality. He thought he could proclaim May 1st as opening day and people would swallow it as gospel.
All he's itching to do is get back to his pep rallies. Campaigning is the only thing he's good at.

This is how stupid trump is.

He's killing his own voters.

Have no fear, 22% of Americans are braindead and would support Trump even if he came out with a plan to force the virus on every American in order to develop herd immunity.

Hey, what's 6-8 million more deaths in comparison to the "great Trump economy"? It's mostly old people anyway.

I am not at all a Trump supporter, but we have to be real, there is no way of knowing if it is better to spread COVID-19 as much as possible, or not.

The reality is that everyone likely will get this airborn virus, just like everyone gets seasonal colds, flu, etc. And clearly the seasonal flu does and has killed way more.
The world COVID-19 death toll is only 170k currently, and not likely to more than double or so.

If this is seasonal and just a variant of the 2009 SARS, then if one does not get it now and gain immunity, then it will just be more lethal next time it comes around.

Social distancing and lock downs slow the spread, but there is no reason at all to believe the total death rate is not the exact same, as long as hospitals are not over whelmed.

Two things: 1) we don’t know how long the antibodies last 2) if we all get it at the same time the hospitals will be overwhelmed

I never said that.

YOU NEVER SAID THAT???!!! Why you stupid twit, I've got your own words right on the page!

It is a pandemic though, and there is a Scientific way to fight a Pandemic. TAIWAN did it, and they now enjoy the benefits of that action. Only 6 deaths and schools are still open in Taiwan.

TAIWAN did it? Why you opaque jackass, Taiwan is an island hardly larger then the size and area of HAWAII with a population of only 23 million!

And they are a very different kind of society. YOU CAN'T BE SERIOUS.

Meanwhile Trump waited for months to do what Taiwan did back in January

LOOK, A-HOLE, Taiwan was right off the coast of where the whole thing STARTED. Of course they did it in January. It took until the middle of March before we even knew for sure we had a problem that was going to spread wide! Trump did what EVERY OTHER freeking country in this world practically did, and our per capita deaths have been among the lowest, only beaten by one other country I know of, GERMANY.

and now we have 41,000+ dead

We have that many dead EVERY YEAR just from traffic accidents, idiot. We had up to 80,000 dead from the flu last season. We average 2.8 MILLION dead of one cause or another EVERY YEAR. DAMN are you a jerk! Meantime Nancy Pelosi was saying back in February, NO WORRIES!

and half of the economy shut down.

Idiot! I thought shutting down the economy was a necessary and good thing! Wow.

TRUMPTARDS believe its nothing more than seasonal flu. TRUMPTARDS don't understand what a pandemic is let alone how you fight and defeat a pandemic.

FUCK AWAY you stupid, racist, bigot Moron!
You're the LAST person to criticize another person's intelligence on this board!!!

If this nation goes into an economic Depression. A real mother phukn Great Depression, being brain dead will be seen as an upgrade. population reduction will occur. Pain and suffering will be the norm. The Federal Reserve private owners spouted over a century ago when the Federal Reserve Act was rammed through congress that these things could not happen. The games played with the money supply for a century may finally be coming home to roost. Lets hope it doesn't.

That's right. And pretty much right on schedule, things are starting to open up. Our governor just reopened a bunch of stuff including the state liquor stores. I'm going to get some booze tomorrow.

Because most Ameticans have been needlessly scared shitless by false information and prefer the comforts of their home. Leaders are going to have to lead and step forward. Banging the drum for staying locked down at home is no leadership at all.

You want to give a shot at explaining that photograph? Are you going to tell us what really happened or are you going to give us the media spin?

States have every right to start their economies back up.
The urban areas will take longer, but even there there are stores and restaurants can open with mitigation measures.
If the weenies stay closed too long businesses will NOT reopen, its happening already, some businesses are gone.

What happens if the economy collapses? I guarantee you if that guy stands in the street he will be run over. He just thinks his shit does not stink. He will find out he is not so important with mass impoverishment. Martial law will occur and he will work or they will throw his limp body and others into ditches and bulldoze dirt over them. We still think of ourselves as self important. The globalists have another surprise for us. We have to be taken down as the top nation for globalism to expand. We live by the federal reserve fiat currency. We die from the same.

It always cracks me up how people on both the left and right act like the number of people in poll represent the majority of Americans.

 

[Care4all]

It's not that this is the most deadly virus.... it's a horrible way to die, you feel like you are drowning, hours and days and even weeks on end, until you finally do die....

And to make it worse, once your relative is admitted, mother, father, husband, wife etc.... you will never see them again in the hospital after admission.... really, after you drop them off... they won't let family members even enter the hospital.....

And when they die, they die alone.... no wife or hubby or child there to say goodbye or hold their hand, till it turns cold.... it's just unbearable to think of....imho!

The virus may not be as incurable, as many first thought.... is what is in the news lately, maybe around a percent infected die I believe some are saying, or maybe less than that....???

The problem is how infectious it is, (and a God send perhaps, in other ways I'll go in to)!

the best educated guess is there are at minimum, 25% of those infected are A-symptomatic, they can pass on the virus to others, without even knowing it....

Coupled with how easily it is transmitted, now they are saying it can possibly be transmitted through the air itself, by talking, and not just from wet particles of virus shed when coughing or sneezing....

Anyway, without a vaccine, and without any social distancing of any kind, in 2 years time, because of this easy spread of it..... the models show all 330 million being exposed to it, from what I understand....

and even at 5/10ths of a percent mortality rate, (or 1/2 of 1%) that could mean 1,600,000 deaths in the 2 years....

the possible good news with this high spread rate, is heard immunity could be achieved, even without a vaccine.... and the virus simply goes away, is killed off, and we humans WON, less of course, those relatives that were killed by it.....
