This was always going to happen. Getting people vaccinated was going to result in these people using it as proof the virus was never a real threat. The path taken was actually the right path and the only right path so nobody actually fucked up this whole time. And even if the numbers jump back up, they can use it against Biden. Red states are going to rush to open things back up in hopes of boosting their economies over the blue states, which is another plus for them. If CA and others are still shut down they can't have all this spring time tourism and stuff. So it gives states willing to open up quickly an economic incentive.
It helps his donors, it helps his party, it validates party decisions of the last 4 years. Why wouldn't he open up? The fun part is when Democrat governors do it too because all the red states are open by Easter and there's no real reason to pretend like they want to be safe. Because their donors and wealthy supporters are going to be eyeing all these red states being fully open.
All this badness from the past year is going to get memory holed soon and I hope you guys are ready for it. We're all going to be pulling our hair out while covid turns out to be just another slight descent on the death spiral rather than the accelerationist wet dream of demolishing capitalism within our lifetime.
