If people are feeling supported by Govt through covid and post-covid then messages from Biden and co might start to gain traction?
Depends when the bills come in and need to be repaid, I guess.
I just think the current shit-storm has also exposed the political processes and establishment somewhat. Don't think Biden is any more likely to be able to reach across the political divide than Trump. Perhaps I'll be proved wrong.

At least he doesn't appear to be mocking and abusing everyone so far (admittedly I am not watching him closely)

That we give thanks that a President (elect) doesn't mock and abuse everyone, says all there is about the state of US politics.

@NTA That is a great thread. Particularly impressed with the posters concerned soliders won't have access to donuts. Gotta avoid those low carb uprisings.. As a guest to a marine bar I can attest those lads enjoy things other than donuts.

@Kiwiwomble no race of people has suffered more throughout history than the Jews. Just making sure they're included in the new adjustment measures alongside the blacks. Righting past wrongs was the criteria wasn't it?
Just to correct you here, Jewish is not a race, rather a (large) group of people with similar or common religious and cultural beliefs. It is the same as calling Muslim/Islam a race.
