Just saying that if the other party had won the stance on science and the leadership of the department of health and human services would have been minutely different.
When we elect Democrats, the major difference is that the regressive movements progress more strongly at the state level, and the Dems we elected claim to be powerless to stop it. (Which we know is untrue because we’ve seen Donald wield near unilateral executive power.)
At the end of the day there is such little material difference between Democrats and Republicans that a growing segment of the population sees no use in missing a day’s pay to vote.
This is why I think it’s a tad incorrect to say “you get what you vote for”. Because we really don’t.

I used understatement. The current course it’s so blindingly stupid that a 2x4 could’ve done a better job at governance.
But if you want to see things otherwise feel free, it’s one of the few freedoms that won’t get disrespected by the twat in chief.
