Fantastic article, Jack. Not only do we have this rematch, but we're about to find out over the next few days if people who stopped getting COVID-19 boosters are as vulnerable as new research suggests. This pandemic is now in its fifth year and there is a non-zero chance we will see 2,000 people die each week towards the end of this month. Reliving parts of 2020 was not in my plans, but here we are.
I'll just add a theme that I expect to see a lot on this excellent blog. If saving the republic was as easy as defeating Trump in November, I'd drink less and sleep better at night. But look at what has happened to this nation since 2015 when that orange turd came down his silly escalator. Each year has been worse than the last. We have lost a lot since 2015, including some constitutional rights. States are criminalizing medicine, which was unthinkable decades ago. Mayors of Democratic cities are crying that migrants -not the housing crisis or capitalism in general- are destroying our cities. Once a society starts asking questions like, "will we soon live under an autocracy," then it already has serious problems. So I pledge to get back to resisting the GOP rather than obsess over the election. Trump is one man. The party he leads will be hurting us long after he expires.
