I suspect that Karl Rove’s assessment of the primary results on Super Tuesday in the Wall Street Journal:
We’ve never seen two candidates wrap up their nominations this early. What could have been contests have turned into coronations. Yet both Messrs. Trump and Biden aren’t only weak contenders but massively flawed, old and declining, despised by much of America. In my lifetime there have been lower points in our nation’s politics, but it is hard to recall them just now.
sums up the views of quite a number of Americans. What concerns me even more is how many people will tie themselves into knots to convince themselves that wasn’t the case.
Makes me think of a saying about China.
“In China, you can change policy, but you can’t change parties. In America, you can change parties but not policies “.
Biden is essentially following Trump’s policies, with the exception of Afghanistan, which was long overdue.
And if Trump were re-elected, little would change.
We, as a nation, are no longer led by elected officials, but by the needs of corporations who control them.
