A grim portrait of Biden's unhappy America

Here I thought pandemics always made people happy. And there's even turmoil over politics at the dumbest levels, such as this thread, to find joy in.

Yes, Marty, we all see your posts...at the dumbest level.

Indeed we do.

(CNN)President Joe Biden often says America's best days are ahead. It just doesn't feel that way right now.
A nation exhausted by a two-year pandemic, struggling against rising food and gas prices, driven to distraction by school closures and torn apart by a political schism that erupted into violence is far from at ease with itself.
The sense of turmoil was captured in a new CNN/SSRS poll released Thursday that showed waning faith in US elections and found that most of the nearly 60% of Americans who disapprove of how Biden is handling his presidency were unable to name one single thing they like that he has done. "He's not Donald Trump. That's pretty much it," one despondent respondent said. Another answered: "I really like his new cat, Willow Biden."

Thanks, Sailor. Yes, Americans, along with the rest of the world, are tired of the Pandemic. I'm guessing Europeans got tired of the Black Plague too back in the day.

IMO, too many Americans are spoiled and take the Pandemic personal which is why many have politicized it.

We live in interesting times and are watching history being made just like those of us who witnessed the effect of both Vietnam and Watergate on our country.

From the OP link:
Rising prices have a kind of strange magic that not only spooks voters, but also seeds the kind of political derangement in which extremists like former President Donald Trump can prosper. His assault on facts -- aided by pliant right-wing media -- has his fans yearning for his authoritarian return to power 13 months after he incited the deadly insurrection at the US Capitol. The country no longer has a common understanding of the truth, with 37% of Americans saying Biden did not legitimately win enough votes to be president, according to CNN's new poll.

From the CNN Poll link: https://www.cnn.com/2022/02/10/politics/cnn-poll-democracy/index.html
Looking back at the outcome of the 2020 election, little has changed in how Americans viewed Joe Biden's victory. While there was no evidence of widespread fraud or vote tampering, 37% said they believed Biden did not legitimately win enough votes to be president. More than 1 in 5, or 22%, said there was solid evidence that Biden did not win enough votes, even though such evidence does not exist. Among Republicans, 70% said Biden's victory was not legitimate, and nearly half, 45%, believed falsely that there was solid evidence of that.

Actually, you need to shut your ass up and consider some facts, versus your trolling fiction as follows:

Pro-Trump counties now have far higher COVID death rates. Misinformation is to blame

Since May 2021, people living in counties that voted heavily for Donald Trump during the last presidential election have been nearly three times as likely to die from COVID-19 as those who live in areas that went for now-President Biden. That's according to a new analysis by NPR that examines how political polarization and misinformation are driving a significant share of the deaths in the pandemic.

NPR looked at deaths per 100,000 people in roughly 3,000 counties across the U.S. from May 2021, the point at which vaccinations widely became available. People living in counties that went 60% or higher for Trump in November 2020 had 2.73 times the death rates of those that went for Biden. Counties with an even higher share of the vote for Trump saw higher COVID-19 mortality rates.

In October, the reddest tenth of the country saw death rates that were six times higher than the bluest tenth, according to Charles Gaba, an independent health care analyst who's been tracking partisanship trends during the pandemic and helped to review NPR's methodology. Those numbers have dropped slightly in recent weeks, Gaba says: "It's back down to around 5.5 times higher.""
