Democrats cannot fail. They can only be failed. It’s 2024 and they’re defending Hillary’s honor against imaginary PhD Anarcocellerationists.
Trump Derrangement Syndrome is incredible.

It has to be measured against the Chinese response. China’s response was extremely effective and they managed to quarantine the country and largely eliminate Covid for three years. Outbreaks were very localized and effective quarantine measures prevented those outbreaks from spreading far before they were stopped.
So the gold measure for wealthy nations is 0 covid. Trump’s response was better than Bidens, Biden’s response was blood for the blood god, and both of them completely failed when measured against China.
Now that I think of it it’s actually horrifying that the Biden admin managed to cover up and manufacture consent so completely that it’s not an election issue. Well, I mean, people think it magically disapeared, so the only “issue” with covid now is plague demons harassing people for wearing masks.
I read something the other day that mentioned an early Fauci quote about how the pandemic would be in recession when we had less than 1k a week dying, and the author of the article pointed out that we had never gotten close to that number. So yeah they just made a command decision to manufacture the end, probably because they couldn’t stand the unintentional worker benefits that were a silver lining of the COVID pandemic (flexibility, some protections, some better pay in some cases) and because corporate landlords were screaming bloody murder. Can’t let our big pocketed speculators down you know!
I work at a place that has a lot of staff, and the age demographics are skewed towards older–I know of at least two coworkers that I actually knew, as in had met and had conversations with, that died of COVID, so when they just arbitrarily announced RTO, I couldn’t help but view it as a cold decision to “age out” some more staff in exchange for a return to managerial viability. Our productivity had been the same or better during the WFH years as well, so they didn’t really have a good excuse beyond, hey this is what everybody has to do now, just be adults about it and accept your added long term health risks and be grateful.
