spooky take
occurred maybe the case for pessimism rn is not any particular policy by the administration or woke people taking over everything or gadsden flag mobs or whatever
rather its that the us government seems incapable of responding to new crises and they accumulate

I think we're not quite there yet - *Biden* is incapable of responding to new crises, but if we had a different Democrat, there would be more vigorous responses. (Probably bad responses, but more than we're seeing now.)

Would it be different with a different democrat? Would it be different with a republican? How much can one man - even the president - actually do? It's a presidency, not a kingship. Bold to assume things would get better but for one single man.

I do think it would be different with almost any other mainstream Democrat, because I think a Democrat president is capable of pushing the bureaucracy to act in certain ways, but I don't see Biden as capable of the leadership required for anything that's not an immediate crisis.
