The gallows-humorous part of it is that it’s the Trumpists who are making it about the election. Everyone else just wants to stay healthy. ---

The Silent Majority will reign? LOL. I can think of a lot of adjectives to describe Trump and his supporters, but “silent” isn’t one of them. ---

“Majority” is also off the mark. ---

Woolery’s tweet may be ridiculous, but it’s dangerous because it taps into a perception that’s bubbling beneath the surface, and one that’s not just shared by Republicans. People everywhere look at the government, particularly at the federal level, and they see colossal ineptitude. For a lot of Republicans, this has been the goal all along: convince ordinary folk that government can’t save them; therefore there’s no use in dedicating resources to developing a robust government response to anything. I know I pile on ignorant conservatives a lot, but there’s enough ignorance to go around. It’s increasingly difficult for a lot of people to see and understand the connection between their civic behavior, investment of their own time and curiosity in political discourse on one hand, and political, social, and economic outcomes on the other. What it means is that even if Biden and Democrats defeats Trump and the GOP soundly, we will know a lot about what Americans see as the problems with our political and economic system, but we won’t necessarily know much about any sort of consensus on how to solve it. Obama was a good president given the circumstances, but his efficacy was significantly diminished after 2010 because of this problem, and Biden, assuming he wins, would be entering a crisis of a considerably higher magnitude in terms of its scope and complexity. ---

It is as I’ve said: Democrats believe that the government can solve problems, and would like you to vote for them to prove it. Republicans believe that the government is the problem, and would like you to vote for them to prove it. ---
