You’re Not Going To Like This

by Erick Erickson
July 13th, 2020

 [.....]

Now, it is time for me to make all of you mad at me.

I’ve decided it is time for brutal honesty. I went to the beach with this on my mind and figured I would let it sit a week. But a week later, I feel more strongly than ever.

I think I hate everybody in politics right now and I’m not sure why I should even bother voting. The nation is failing and the conservative movement needs purging of a lot of conmen, charlatans, grifters, and hucksters who’ve aided and abetted the selling out of principle for profit.

The President of the United States was just fine in good times and got a lot accomplished, in spite of himself, but a person’s character is revealed in crisis and we should not be surprised that the man is revealed in crisis to be unfit for leadership during a crisis. Lest you think otherwise, the rest of the world is starting to go back to normal and the virus is running rampant here.

The very people that told us not to wear masks in February and March and then ridiculed Joe Biden for wearing a mask now have an erection for a President wearing a mask as if his own Surgeon General and other leaders were not telling us otherwise and he himself was treating mask-wearing as a sign of weakness.

Given that Erickson called Trump a "racist" in 2016 - ludicrously false - but supposedly endorsed Trump in 2019, ?????

If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

He couldn’t possibly be this stupid, could he? The U.S. case number of covid?

What a dolt. Never mind that covid hit Europe weeks, maybe months before the U.S.; and never mind the numbers represent increased testing in the U.S.; a case of COVID won’t impact the health of 98% of the population, most of whom won’t know they were even infected, nor suffer any or minor symptoms.

If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.     -Dwight Eisenhower-

"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."     -Ayn Rand-

@aligncare

Yes. There are many people in the media this days who have turned stupidity into a profession. He's one of them.

I think this started with Hay-Raldo.
