One good thing about having Trump in the White House is that doesn’t have enough sense to hide what a terrible person he is.
We all recall the COVID-19 outbreak, and Trump’s suggestion that we reduce our testing for the disease on the basis that less testing means fewer positive results, which means less outrage on the level of Trump’s ineptitude in handling the epidemic.
It’s possible that Americans are so angry that the Trump administration has ruined their country and its democracy that paid advertising for Republican candidates is having no effect on them.
We can only hope.
Obviously, the endorsement of a much-despised president didn’t help, but what chance did this election-denying moron actually have in a sophisticated state like Minnesota?
Until I was about 40, what Milton Friedman said at left made perfect sense to me.
That’s when I realized that free market capitalism is destroying the environment, and that without government regulation, our planet would soon be in flames.
Remarkably, there are many people, especially those in Big Oil, who understand climate change but think that wildfires, superstorms, desertification, ocean acidification and massive losses of biodiversity are an acceptable price to pay if it will transport them millionaires to billionaires.
