President Joe Biden is opening a new line of attack against former President Donald Trump this week, flipping the script on the classic Reagan-era “Are you better off than you were four years ago?” question to remind voters of life during his predecessor’s tenure.
What is this faux populism when poor people were the ones risking their lives for shitty jobs and disproportionately dying?
And yeah, we should expect that pandemics will continue to happen. COVID itself is still mutating and a pandemic kicking off wasn’t a surprise. More people living closer together encroaching on nature and traveling more often is the breeding ground for pandemics. Disease safety is not just an economic issue, but a social justice issue. Obama set up a monitoring organization after Ebola and Bird Flu showed worrisome spread but were thankfully contained. SARS was just one of the diseases they were tracking. Trump dismantled it because conservatives are incapable of good governance, and that has deadly consequences for the people at the bottom of the ladder.
And it also fucks up the economy if that’s literally the only thing you think matters.
It was on Reddit telling “essential workers” to quit if they could. To never keep doing something if people start calling an entire group of workers “heroes”. They’re absolving themselves of taking care of you. The plaque to your memory will be very pretty.
And no, you don’t go through day to day planning on another pandemic. Unless you’re a prepper or FEMA. To bring it up here as the basis of an economic question is incredibly bad faith. The fact is stuff was more affordable when Trump was president. Did that have anything to do with Trump? No. Do most Americans understand that? No. So should Biden campaign on an economic improvement most people are only starting to to see? Lol no way. He should be telling people he’s in the trenches with them. He should be breaking apart Kroger, not Apple.
