During any emergency or crisis, you will find that some people will rise to the occasion, people like many of our Governors, and especially the nurses and doctors who have been on the front lines of this crisis since day one. And unfortunately, you will have some people like Trump and these protesters, who will categorically fail during a crisis. Their selfishness will prevent them from thinking of anyone other than themselves. They will not rise to the occasion, Instead they will fail at the moment of truth. Not only will they fail, but like Trump, they will seek to blame others for their failures.
These protesters are the type of people that America could never count on during a crisis. If America were invaded by a foreign country, these are the type of people that would betray America in a heartbeat, and side with the enemy.
In the end, the true character of a person will always be revealed when they are faced with adversity. And the eternal question will always be, what did they do when it truly mattered?
“THESE are the times that try men's souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands by it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman."
― Thomas Paine, The Crisis

You literally just answered your own question.
Like Trump, these counterfeit patriots are indifferent to the harm, stress, and potential devastation they are placing on our medical infrastructure by helping to spread this virus. The concept of serving a cause greater than themselves is completely foreign to them. If they can't eat it, grope it, or shoot it, then they don't want it.
Do they really believe that the rest of America is out having a good time, and going about their normal lives? Do they believe that the more than 90 thousands families that have lost loved ones are enjoying themselves right now? Do they think the doctors, nurses and first responders who have been on the front lines of this battle since day one, and are now stretched to the breaking point, are out having a good time, and living a normal life? Our greatest generation from WW2 have to be spinning in their graves. I'm actually glad that most of them are not around to see this. The men and women of our greatest generation had true grit. Trump protesters are filled with true sh!t.
If they really want to protest something, they should be out protesting for more protective gear for nurses, doctors, and first responders. Or how about protesting for more testing nation wide. But once again, they're too selfish, and too unpatriotic. For once, they should try and consider all of these things, and reject the worst instincts of their human nature. And last but not least, they should for once give some consideration to growing the F. UP.
