Tuesday March 24, 2020
222 Days until the election on November 3rd
302 Days until the Inauguration on January 20, 2021
When I grew up Eisenhower was President. Talk about the Depression and World War II (WWII) were common. There was hope. There was optimism. We were the greatest nation on Earth (or so we told ourselves.)
Kennedy got shot and we said, “How can it get worse?”
Vietnam. Inflation,The Draft. Stagflation. Mass protests and we said, “How can it get worse?”
Then Reagan and there was optimism. Then the unions got busted and we’ve been on an economic downward spiral ever since.
Then Bush I
Then Clinton who tried to stem the tide.
Then Bush II
Then Obama and there was optimism.
Then Trump and we said, “How can it get worse?”
We are on a pace to loss four times as many people to the Corona Virus as we did in World War II.
Will we make it to the next election?
“How can it get worse?”
PS Eclipse
