The Trump Defection, Part 1

In a major reversal, Lion endorses Biden. Although Lion had long criticized Trump’s response to Covid, I was not expecting him to defect to Biden (and as some individuals in the comments note, a vote for Biden may effectively be a vote for his VP, who is way worse than Biden). In 2016-2018, Lion was… Continue reading The Trump Defection, Part 1

The post-Covid social and economic landscape of America

The three major stories of the second-half of 2020 are: BLM protesters and the apparent inability/unwillingness of anyone in charge to do anything to stop the unrest. Every few weeks or so, there is new rioting and looting. This has become the ‘new normal’ in post-covid America, in which there is so much capital due… Continue reading The post-Covid social and economic landscape of America
