It’s a mistake to think there’s perfect overlap between hardcore Trump supporters and people who believe the restrictions imposed in response to Covid have been excessive.
I’ve been surprised in the last couple weeks by how many people I’ve come across who are being very casual and lax about social distancing. I went to an outdoor wake a few days ago where everyone was shaking hands and eating from a buffet. I doubt all or most of those people believe Covid is a hoax. They just presumably think that public restrictions are excessive and unnecessary.

Also, human nature. This has been going on for 6 months, most people haven't gotten sick, and therefore most people including those that would take it seriously will become lax.
