A lot of this is true, but it's also misleading and understated. This isn't just the end of Trump, it's the end of the dominance of global capital.

@zingales has the right approach. Taiwan is functioning, but the U.S., Italy, France, England, etc have bureaucracies that are not. It's an ideological failure, a gutting of public governance.https://promarket.org/captured-western-governments-are-failing-the-coronavirus-test/ …8 replies 20 retweets 69 likesShow this thread
In the middle of all the insane talk about casual racism at the start of the epidemic, every government in western Europe looked away from the Chinese CDC to the US CDC. They didn't look closely enough to realize they were looking only at Trump.
