So sayeth this article in early 2022 - The Trump menace is darker than ever – and he’s snapping at Biden’s heels | J…
Fucking depressing if true.
1. Because
- Joe Biden isn't popular
- Biden has the lowest approval rating of any US president at this stage of his term (barring Trump himself)
- Republican politicians fear Trump and they fear his supporters
- Two-thirds of Republicans still think the 2020 election was rigged
- Republican-run states are rewriting electoral law to make it harder to vote
2. Epistemic status
- Type
- claim
- Agreement level
- Ask again later
I don't know, but the article seems well reasoned. Sigh.
3. Elsewhere
3.1. In my garden
