Well at least Trump will be able to look back on all his campaign promises from 2016 made good: repealing the ACA and ensuring that his working class followers have access to healthcare, building a wall from San Diego to Brownsville, passing an infrastructure package, removing America from its needless foreign wars etc.
Oh wait none of that happened. His signature legislative achievement in a period, 2017-2018, when his party had control of the presidency, both houses of Congress and over 30 governor's mansions was a
give-away to the nation's wealthiest people. That's what amazes me about Trump's support, how little he has to do in regards to materially improving his supporter's lives yet how easy it is for him to retain their support. The fact that such a large number of people are so hateful towards the establishment that they're willing to support such an obvious conman to the bitter end, simply because he's a self-described enemy of the same system they hate, should definitely give people pause imo. It represents serious systemic failure. Democrats need to show that they can meaningfully improve people's lives but I have basically 0 confidence that they will...they'll probably just do a bunch of performative culture war bullshit while the country burns. Incompetence is a way of life for them.
I voted for Biden (something that my more radical younger self probably would denounce me as a traitor for lol) simply because I thought that he may be EVEN MARGINALLY better at handling the COVID issue than the flaming dumpster fire response of the Trump administration. He's the first person I've ever voted for for president, and he's also probably the worst Democratic candidate of my lifetime, but such are the times that we live I guess. He's a belligerent corrupt liar too but maybe he won't be quite as much of a disaster
The GOP has just reverted to a pathetic cult that desperately huddles around the "Dear Leader", i.e. the only politician in their party with anything resembling popular support
