The first post-COVID election in the United States is upon us and Republicans and Democrats are flying through this final week in decidedly different moods.
Republicans are eagerly anticipating riding a red wave that they hope carries them to majorities in the House and Senate, and then to the White House in 2024.
The Democrats, on the other hand, are all weighed down by a Joe Biden-shaped millstone and the sudden, harsh realization that substituting pathological prevarication for policy is no longer a winning strategy for them.
The conventional wisdom is that a toxic combination of inflation and crime will do the Democrats in. The amount of effort being spent by Dem politicians and their flying monkeys in the mainstream media to assure the voting riffraff that neither inflation nor crime is a real problem lends credence to this.
There are other issues wrought by the sham Biden presidency and the moron collective in the majority on Capitol Hill that are hurting the Dems this year, but it’s the unsettling combo of feeling unsafe when we leave our houses and spending too much money on groceries that’s kneecapping them.
We should remember, however, that there is one gargantuan issue that got us to all of these big issues that are ruining our lives: COVID. Had the Wuhan Chinese Bat Flu not broken free and done its damage, Joe Biden would still be in his Delaware basement playing with his Legos and eating Cheerios out of a little baggie.
Never was the Democrats’ motto “Never let a crisis go to waste,” seized upon more quickly than at the outbreak of the COVID pandemic. I will say this once again with all sincerity: they didn’t give a damn about anyone’s health,

They weren’t even pretending that the continuation of lockdowns, mask mandates, and eventually the draconian vaccine rules were about public health. Sure, they’d pay lip service to it but it was obvious to all with eyes to see (conservatives) that it was a diabolical power grab.
The easiest way to figure that out was just looking at the number of Democratic politicians who were caught violating their oh-so-important “public health” rules. It was always the governors and mayors who were instituted the strictest policies who were caught giving the finger to their constituents–like Gavn Newsom, Gretchen Whitmer, Satan (I think that’s the D.C. mayor’s name) and the like.
The most egregious offense committed by the Democrats under the guise of COVID safety was keeping schools shut far past when it was safe to open them. They did so because that’s what the teachers’ unions wanted and Democrats are their well-trained lapdogs. I know that there are a lot of good teachers in America. Unfortunately, none of them are teachers’ union officials, all of whom are lazy cancers who are killing public education from within.
Do I want to vote FOR COVID lockdowns? Nah, I don’t think so. Not in this lifetime.
Pathological prevarication is all the democrats have.
people can be forgiven for a lot of what went on in the early days of COVID.
Very few people should be forgiven for what went on, if any. Whether they were a politician (tyrant), a bureaucrat (self-serving and/or ignorant tool of the tyrants), a "journalist" (self-aggrandizing, lying, stupid tool of the tyrants), or simply someone supporting the lockdowns/business closures, the useless masks, pointless social distancing, and/or forced/coerced "vaccinations" (fearful, selfish, servile, ignorant, stupid tools of the tyrants, a.k.a. useful idiots), there are very few who deserve ANY forgiveness.
There was NEVER ANY reason to close the schools, or businesses, or anything else.
EVERYTHING about "COVID" was, and still is, a LIE.
All those restaurant restrictions—takeout only. Outside dining only. Inside dining ok
but plexiglass dividers, wear mask when not eating.
2020 visit to PA:
Allegheny County—takeout only
Westmoreland County—indoor dining ok
I remember eating outside at a Jim Thorpe PA place..owner and diners so excited—first day you could eat there!...outside...
Am seeing tired old memes on facebook again:
“Voting is like driving—D-Drive; R-Reverse”..
“Set your clocks back an hour but on
election day don’t set your country back
400 years”
I’m on that train.
‘Places like Sweden (which the left typically cites in every other domestic political argument other than, curiously, the COVID one) never instituted school closures.’
cue our resident covidiot who couldn’t wait to breathlessly report any negative results from Sweden’s covid policies to us on this forum...
