GOP like to ask, "Are you better off now than you were four years ago?"
They seem to think their assessment of the economy is reality. Alleged hyperinflation, record illegal immigration, Biden's dementia, unstable foreign relations... you know their usual talking points. We have one here who reminds us.
Four years ago everything was shut down. The pandemic had already killed more Americans than were lost in WWII, on its way to 1,219,101 citizens and counting. Trump was focused on his re election and was caught lying about his non response and indifference to the pandemic. It was clear he and they had NO plan.
Gas prices indeed fell, because few people drove. Supply glutted. Hospitals were overwhelmed. We all had to mask. Social distance in stores. Massive shortages of meat, bread, eggs, milk, produce of all kinds... Remember the toilet paper shortage? Travel bans were in place. Here in Colorado several county sheriffs posted notice that non county residents caught driving in their counties without specific purpose would be heavily fined. That December our concert schedule tried to resume. I got sick from it and nearly died in the end of January 2021. My oxygen fell to 70 when I was admitted for organ failure.
Republicans try to make us think these safety measures were really unnecessary. We all over reacted. Dr Fauci was the liar. Plus the vaccines caused more harm than they saved lives. My doctors said without the shot and booster I got, I would not have survived that first night in the hospital. I lost my gall bladder, part of my liver and pancreas. Had Covid19 brain fog and fatigue ever since.
Yeah, we miss those good old days, don't we?
That's when I drew this line caricature of Trump's face. Sideways it reads "Liar" cursive.
Biden is beginning to crush Trump in swing states.

We can't let up and become complacent, thinking this election is in the bag, like in 2016. Trump snuck in. He should be beaten in an election in no way close. Trounced. Sent to court and prison with tail between legs. Then the GOP can begin the process of healing. That will take some time. TW seems to have no idea how far extreme right he shifted, and many are like that. Lost touch with reality they did. They read and pass along "fake news." The real fake news.
