    Obviously Americans are brain dead but I wonder if the train of thought here is that under Trump there would not be a COVID lockdown so since republicans are brainwashed into thinking that not sacrificing old people to the capitalist gods will cause a total global economic collapse they thought the economy will grow under Trump and then of course democrats think that handling COVID and “getting back to normal” will fix the economy so once Biden was inaugurated republicans thought the economy was doomed and democrats thought it was fixed because obviously big evil communist Joe Biden will force a lockdown or vaccines. Of course neither of those things happened so now we are stuck with a shitty economy and COVID

    That’s at least what I think since that narrative has been so heavily pushed by both sides of the media
