This is shaping up in a way similar to the Battle of the Bulge. Just like their leftist predecessors in 1944, the US socialists of today have launched a major surprise counteroffensive, using the virus to destroy the economy, putting everything on the line in one last, final desperate bid to reverse their electoral fortunes. If they can successfully keep the economy down until the election, they have a chance to turn the tide in their favor. If they fail, having fired shot their biggest rounds of ammunition, their political hopes will be crushed in a more spectacular and devastating manner than anyone ever dreamed. The stakes right now for the future of this nation are the highest they’ve ever been in living memory.
Sadly, no matter how bad they are, they always have a chance.
