If that and the other things are true, it is a major blunder. And it shows the danger of having an administration that looks after the needs of its president rather than the needs of the country.

This coupled with the declaration Trump made at Davos that he will seeks major cuts to Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security if he is re-elected, should be played up big time. If he's the nominee, Sanders will have to play every card to counter the socialist card played against him.

You know, we haven’t been using a few S&H type words lately: catalyst and trigger event.  A catalyst would be an event or issue that illustrates or brings to the fore the new values.  The trigger would be the last such event, the one that makes the forces backing the new values essentially dominant and inevitable.  We are well through the crisis period, yet the trigger has not happened.  No regeneracy has brought the new values into general acceptance.

The impeachment of Trump, the new virus, and the election of 2020 just might be such events.

The bad president representing the old values gone wrong is another theme that may have occurred lately.

Too soon to call, but I do recall thinking and declaring a pending catalyst on hearing Katrina would hit very near New Orleans as a major storm.  Now gives a similar feeling.
