Keep getting that message out. The left (Dems) were given a huge gift by those idiots who ransacked the Capitol. So now Reps have been silenced by the embarrassment IMHO. And Biden is running wild with hardly a whimper of protest from the Reps.

Much wrong with the world but your next poem could be on press bias. Used to be that the press reported objectively. No more! They've taken the position of advocates.

I'm actually pretty liberal, but I'd like to see money spent wisely. I want government to support people who need it, but I don't like the waste of big government. Privatize as much of government functions as possible, like Mitch Daniels did in Indiana.

That was a gift - and as usual, they've taken it as a sign that they should continue what they're doing; there will be a lot of disappointment very soon.

Yes, Trump was a brain fungus, but he actually got things done - things that didn't include any of Biden's current self-made crises; Trump's crises were mostly about his teenage maturity level, but China was actually wary of him. Of all the times for an 8-decade Biden to take power, rallying global pressure on China for COVID-19 is literally the worst possible moment in history. Unilaterally killing our own oil industry on day 1 in a pandemic with record spending is going to feel like a hollow victory 5 years from now, when Americans are driving Chinese-made electric cars.

Yes, the election will never be repeated; 2022 will be a bloodbath when Biden resigns before the halfway mark. I doubt the voting bill can reach the finish line. Glenn Greenwald might be a long-lost triplet (I'm a twin) because most of what he wrote from Oct-Jan came a couple days after my social media posts on similar topics. But, in the end, the most important thing is China, and it's the fallout from the pandemic that will dictate events through fall 2022.
