At the end of the day the dems would never have made meaningful changes to healthcare (despite controlling the presidency and all of Congress), because they received very large amounts of money from heath insurance companies (in this election cycle it's something like 40% of their funding). They basically gave a handout to insurance companies by making it mandatory (under financial penalty) to buy expensive, crappy health insurance. Insurance costs for grad students at my old school increased 10x.

Can someone explain to me how the US got to a state where the two presidential candidates are Trump and this bloke?

Biden once plagiarized a speech by Neil Kinnock.
Says it all.

@Victor-Meldrew nicely tied back to Cummingsgate. My doesn't that have a ring to it.
-
Biden:" why is it that Joe Biden is the first in his family ever to go to a university? "
Kinnock: "Why am I the first Kinnock in a thousand generations to be able to get to university?"
The pithiest comment I can recall was " Because standards have dropped?"...

Yep. Are we going to have "Biden derangement syndrome" now though?
I suppose it keeps it fair.

Not a good look for Cuomo. Or anyone who had anything to do with this NY order.
New York Health Department website quietly deletes controversial Cuomo order that forced nursing homes to admit coronavirus patients and 'led to 5,000 deaths'
and here's the order
A copy of the page saved by the Internet archive Wayback Machine, however, shows that Cuomo's order stated: "No resident shall be denied readmission or admission to the NH [nursing home] solely based on a confirmed or suspected diagnosis of COVID-19. NHs [Nursing homes] are prohibited from requiring a hospitalized resident who is determined medically stable to be tested for COVID-19 prior to admission or readmission."

Cuomo somehow managed to look good for a while when his early management and opinion of virus control was easily as bad as, if not worse than, many others.
He's a sham.

And this.
New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, who signed legislation granting hospital and nursing home executives immunity from lawsuits related to the novel coronavirus last month, previously received a big-money boost from a powerful health care industry group, according to a new report.
