I agree.
But Trump managed to get himself at odds with Fauci. Fauci is still with us. Trump is not.
I have called this thing a hoax, but what I really meant was the response was a hoax.
If Trump has just shut up and acted like a leader for the entire country.....he'd be in his second term. And not much would be different (except maybe we would not be an additional 2 trillion in debt).
But, if you are in a game where image and emotion count....you have to play well.
He relied on the economy to get him through. He did not count on the coordinated counter attack he received.
Those of us asking for change of direction (only in terms of his responses) were shouted down by those in the same party.
Well.....he's gone.
And he's probably not coming back.
I can only hope the next person we nominate will have the same moxy in the same areas, but a little more smarts when it comes to making the fools on the left look like what they are.
I think that ignores a few things.
First, the "election". About that, there had been a four (plus) year barrage of negative press, overblown charges (and shown baseless), rampant fishing expeditions masquerading as "investigations" finally, leading up to an impeachment done along Party lines with a folder full of allegations and unnamed sources which could not produce anything to convict Trump of, even when they impeached him a second time.
Add COVID and stir. Whether the Chinese released the virus by accident or accidentally on purpose, their actions were such that the whole world would have to deal with the virus, and I think that was intended, with people in key places like the head of the WHO and the head of our NIAID, to demolish the prosperity America was experiencing, because that was the preeminent economic threat to China. With a second term, American manufacturing could have taken a bite out of Chinese markets, employment here could have been rampant, and we would have possibly reached the point of using our own resources to make our own stuff to the exclusion of China. Trump was a much tougher negotiator than the Neville Chamberlain wannabes who preceded him, and the perfidious b@stards cashing in on incestuous deals with the PRC.
Naturally China wanted Trump out of the way, and they used every card in the deck to pull that off, including participating, directly or indirectly,in the removal of integrity from Americas electoral process.
In short, Trump didn't lose.
The election was stolen through fraud. I'd reserve my enmity for those of the GOP who were just fine with that, so they could get back to bid'ness as usual, and lining their pockets (directly or indirectly) without all that attention being called to just how badly they were screwing their constituents. I'd reserve it for the traitors who are even now inhabiting the halls of power and wreaking devastation on this country, something which the Virus has been used as the excuse fr, including the methods used to corrupt election results by millions of votes nationwide.
As for Fauci and others of his ilk, he's an entrenched bureaucrat--the epitome of a Swamp Creature--they run the place. All those elected officials are just temps.
