Actually this is an very interesting turn. With the quarantine illegals have been the number one target for illegal evictions, because they lost their jobs and couldn't pay rent. So many have been heading back to Mexico or wherever they were from. If they aren't counted in the census the additional weight from votes is likely lost. And Reddit was bitching the other day that (black) prisoners were being counted on the census for rural white Americans. The huge lock-down on international travel has likely reduced illegal immigration significantly, because they get stopped at every boarder and the idea of travel is not extra dangerous for less reward.
In addition the collapse of flop houses on airbnb has likely crashed the housing markets in liberal cities. But the rent and mortgages are not going to go down, likely crippling the economy of the cities. And the protests spiraling into riots that literally did likely billions in damage. The riots have also driven a additional wedge between the black and hispanic communities. Biden is not able to remove his mentally challenged pedo image. And the last thing the black community saw from him was "you ain't black".
Politically Trump supporters not wearing masks might be the single most effective attack against the left. It denies them excess voting weight, denies them political rallies and it creates an economic vacuum in their strongest cities.
Trump's likely won the election by letting a pandemic hit.

Copying form article " ... Immigration advocates argued the question would frighten Hispanics and immigrants into abstaining from the census, potentially costing their communities political representation and federal aid dollars ..."
If they're Illegal, that shouldn't have representation! The mayor of Chicago recent said she'd be sending out a census taker in the form of a cowboy. And if the communities saw him that was a bad thing? I'm almost afraid to fill out the census this year with all these leftist thugs looking to gather information for possibly other nefarious purposes.
