Idiots of the Week: Churchgoers During a Pandemic and Returning Idiot: Tucker Carlson

This week's Idiots of the Week are people who are so DELUDED that being in a church is
going to spare them from the DEADLY COVID19 Virus and  a return winner:Fox News' Tucker Carlson who Blames ‘Diversity’ And ‘Wokeness’ For Coronavirus.

BUNCH OF IDIOTS #1:  People who attend Chuches  During a Pandemic
  People in several states have been shown in news broadcasts as attending church services, and being in packed churches. One CNN reporter interviewed people in Ohio, and several congregants said "The blood of Jesus covers me and protects me from all disease."  THAT IS JUST MENTAL ILLNESS TALKING.   WTH is wrong with people?
  The reporter said "Don't you fear spreading the deadly virus to others?" They all answered, "No." 
BOTTOM LINE: These Churches and their attendees will prevent the U.S.A. from ever getting COVID19 under control because they are INSANE.  It's going to be a long haul with this virus because of religious wackos.

MAJOR IDIOT #2: Fox News' Tucker Carlson

The Fox News host turned to racism as the outbreak continued to spread.
The Fox News host on Monday appeared to blame the spread of coronavirus on diversity and the “cult” of wokeness.
In a “Tucker Carlson Tonight” segment about the expanding outbreak of the virus called COVID-19, the right-wing personality joined growing racism against Asians since the virus emerged in China.

Carlson claimed the media has underplayed the danger of the virus out of political correctness. “If you think maybe we ought to take some steps to protect ourselves from it, then you’re a bigot,” he said.

After citing news articles about racial profiling against Asians (the virus originated in Wuhan, China), Carlson made a head-scratching pivot:

“Identity politics trumped public health and not for the first time,” he said. “Wokeness is a cult. They would let you die before they admitted that diversity is not our strength.”

BONUS IDIOT: Meanwhile, ultraconservative radio host Rush Limbaugh claimed the media was exaggerating the illness to take down President Donald Trump, and that coronavirus was nothing more than the “common cold.”
