A Facebook friend and artist posted this morning: "It's not the economy, stupid."
She's right, you know, and don't let the finger-waggers tell you any different.
Americans live in the wealthiest multicultural democracy in the world and they just voted for fascism.
Some say Joe Biden's record in office following Donald Trump's garbage run rivals that of FDR, and that's with the opposition party being chock-a-block with insurrectionist traitors trying to destroy government from within.
Remember Bob the Steelworker here in good ol' Canada? He makes good money in a unionized job at the heavily government subsidized plant in Sault Ste. Marie, my hometown, and he hijacked a federal government announcement of yet more subsidization in Algoma Steel, this time via an electric furnace to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions, to boohoo about his personal economy.
Oh and call out a female neighbour for "not working" but now getting government subsidized dental care.
It was billionaires backing Donald Trump. Millionaires voting for him. Wealthy suburbanites, profitable business owners, new immigrants, old immigrants, neo-Nazis, soccer moms, social conservatives, atheists, Christians, college students, retirees, the list goes on and on.
Stop trying to make sense of it, is my advice, because it doesn't make any.
