The pathway to chronic fatigue leading to inaction is lined by people catastrophizing every day. Sometimes I wish the criticism of Trump was a bit more targeted. Some people claimed with a straight face that he would amend the constitution to take away women’s voting rights on his first day of office. While time and effort was spent talking about that, some of the “lesser activities” he performed, like greatly curtailing the EPA, or budget cuts to the IRS went unnoticed.
I don’t know if there is a name for this effect, but it seems like so many people are talking about how the world is burning in every way and that makes it difficult to conduct opposition to his efforts.
The only “good thing” for me is that almost by any way you measure his presidency, it’s been pretty bad. Wages haven’t gone up, productivity hasn’t gone up, GNP hasn’t gone up, etc. Every day it gets a little harder for his fans to defend him. I suspect instead of leaning on actual data that they will just confabulate some other data that makes things seem favorable.
I find it a little comforting to think that it wouldn’t have gone as bad as this if Kamala got in.
No matter how bad it gets during his Presidency it will be Biden and Obama’s fault and he will have spent so much tireless effort to fix it that it may still be bad but just think of how much worse it would have been without Trump daddy here?!? Then when whoever comes in after him fixes it up and it starts getting better it will be “Trumps tactics and work in his term finally coming to fruition” and “despite their best efforts in this new administration to destroy it, Pappa Trumps policies from the previous administration are finally turning things around!”
They are just sick in the head and short of the ICE Nazi’s dragging away the Trumpers own family to the concentration camps they will defend and excuse every bit of Trump’s bullshit.
