You're overthinking it. Democrats in charge of the country are their own worst enemy. Give them 2 years to screw shit up and cave to the mob and they will carve their own gravestones for you. People new to poltics don't seem to understand the best chance you have at winning is when the other party is in power

I disagree.

People are morons - if the news media tells them that dogshit is caviar, they will eat dogshit.

The Russians put up with pure Communism for 75 years and they now have a system of crony capitalism not that different from what the Chinese have.

Even the USA has a mix of free enterprise and crony capitalism - this was proven by the Wall Street bailouts.

You can lie about what isn't right in front of people's face. You can't lie about what people are actually experiencing every day. If jobs go away, wages go down, prices go up, people will want whoever is charge gone. We crave change as human being when things are not going well, party is irrelevant for most normal people

I disagree. COVID-19 is a real disease, but the Democrats are manipulating people's perceptions of it. They have all kinds of gross misperceptions about it from the media.

Biden opposed the China travel ban - but a few years from now - most average idiots will think that COVID-19 was the "Trump disease".

Not true, to anyone who lost a single person to covid it was/is very real and therefore the MSM messaging about it resonates far more than Trump's original "ah its nbd calm down" narrative (which i agreed with, causing a panic was the wrost thing he could have done).

You can't manipulate the perception of your grandmother dieing alone in a hospital hooked up to a ventilator. Or a mandatory socially distant funeral where you can't hug one another for comfort. This is one of the reasons they hammered the covid fear mongering so hard. There was visceral connection with people & real events that grabbed people's attention.

you are right about the travel ban and it being known as the Trump virus for the rest of history though. Unfortunately shitty employees don't get the blame when a company is caught with its pants down, the CEO does. (not saying its right but thats how the world works. Leadership is typically blamed and/or lauded even when the positive or negative event had nothing to do with their own personal actions)
