      The two overarching political developments right now are a radicalization of everyone’s idea of normal and a dramatic curtailment of everyone’s rights, mobility, finances, and electoral options, and I don’t see how this ends in anything other than authoritarianism

      They are going to try and build up Trump like Bush after 9/11 but it won't work. Too polarized now and too many people hate him.

          That changes fast if people are facing destitution and government action saves their lives, and he's able to take the credit

          The only thing necessary for the triumph of Republicans is for Democrats to stay home on election day.

          but American media turning into British "openly-propagandizing-for-the-gov't" media on the eve of an election will have an impact on actual disaster response as everyone becomes Fox News and tells Trump he's doing great no matter what happens

          And it’s going to kill his voters both because of age and because Republicans have been polled as significantly less likely to take this pandemic seriously...

          Those approval/disapproval numbers are locked in place by now. But I'd guess that a miserable 2020 will depress turnout among voters who still say the approve of him.

          Yeah, a lot harder to pull that off when you did the equivalent of blowing off "Bin Laden determined to strike in US" in broad daylight on national television.

          No, the opposite. Dems were much more servile to Bush than they have been to Trump.
