I think it's more more likely we're not going to have lockdowns and instead policy-makers will just let the hospitals melt down and lots of lots of people will die uneccesarily. https://twitter.com/SeanTrende/status/1326276306263273474
It's already happening in some places (South Dakota, El Paso). People will die in ER waiting rooms before they can be treated and people will die at home alone before they even make it to the hospital. Death upon death upon death. An ocean of it before us.
There's a notion that many around the President have, and has fairly wide purchase that "it is what it is." Nothing to be done. Well that's a loser's ideology. If you want to be a winner, if you want to Make America Great then for the love of God save your people.
On the other hand, Trump and others have shown that letting tens of thousands of people die who didn't have to die doesn't really have political cost, so if that's all you care about, then not much incentive to do otherwise.
