One Year PODaversary!
Talkin’ Politics
- Covid numbers in red states are spiking again - 7 day average in MO is back to over 1,400, looks similar to last Sept. when the biggest spike in MO started
- Remember always about 10 days to 2 weeks behind on the stats, so a trend up like this is likely to mean a continued spike up
- Missouri still WAY behind in vaccine rate - still under 40% for fully vaccinated
- Failures in leadership
- To be clear Parson ASKED for Help from the Federal Gov., THEN said that Federal workers going door to door would not be welcome
- EARLIEST I can find of Parson urging folks get the vaccine was JUNE 30 of 2021, so like 2 weeks ago, not even 2 weeks
- Poor messaging by Biden admin?
- Class warfare extends to medicine
- Talking like University liberals about the science and the virus doesn’t sell to folks who don’t trust the messenger
- WHY THE FAUCI OBSESSION
- Why is gop so interested in their core voter group NOT getting vaccinated? Seems counterproductive
- Noam Chomsky’s message to dems - Dems MUST stop abandoning the working class
- https://truthout.org/articles/noam-chomsky-to-retain-power-democrats-must-stop-abandoning-the-working-class/
- The Dem Party Country Clubification
- Goes along with the Covid issue, working class has bought the GOP culture
- How can dems make comeback here
- The JD Vance block of the GOP
- Educated, doing well, but play acting
