If this is true it's a travesty. We won't have widespread vaccination in 10 weeks; even once vaccination happens, it will take many months to restore full employment. This is building a bridge 1/4 of the way across a chasm. — PolitiTweet.org

Paul Krugman @paulkrugman
What all this means is that we'll be well set up for a rapid economic surge once the vaccine is widely distributed, even though many Americans will have been financially ruined. It's grossly unfair, and shouldn't have happened this way, but it's how things are 4/ — PolitiTweet.org

And the higher-wage workers who haven't been hurt much by the pandemic have been saving a lot, and are now flush with cash 3/ https://t.co/ZvQvP78aV8 — PolitiTweet.org
Paul Krugman @paulkrugman
Over the next few months millions of Americans will be in desperate straits — savings exhausted, quite possibly evicted and homeless. But laid-off workers tend to be low-wage, which is why GDP has recovered much more than employment (Macro Advisers data) 2/ https://t.co/DZYiPYdigO — PolitiTweet.org

Some people have suffered terribly in the pandemic; others have done OK. This sets us up for a lot of misery in the first half of 2021, especially if there isn't a relief bill — but also for a strong recovery 1/ https://t.co/dlxcLMW9lL — PolitiTweet.org

Yes. It's projection. There really is a vast right-wing conspiracy: lots of media orgs, think tanks, etc coordinating smear campaigns. The idea that people might be honestly angry about something doesn't fit their experience — PolitiTweet.org

The conspiracist mindset pervades the right. People can't be condemning a stupid, offensive article because it's stupid and offensive; it must be a coordinated Democratic plot https://t.co/yH3H8stReo — PolitiTweet.org

How to understand where we are now: America's right has always included a paranoid, conspiracist fringe — people who believed that Eisenhower was a Communist agent. But now the crazies make up 64% of the GOP. https://t.co/dNi8op7xKN — PolitiTweet.org

As Adam Smith said, there is a great deal of ruin in a nation. America had and still has many strengths as a society. But given time and persistence, a malign political movement can undo those strengths. I'm very frightened about the future 8/ — PolitiTweet.org

And while the practice of equating patriotism with political support for the current president (as long as he's a Republican) didn't start with Reagan — Nixon did it too — it got much more intense, paving the way for the Trump cult of personality 7/ — PolitiTweet.org

Well, for one thing it was the beginning of the great mortality divergence. America used to have about the same life expectancy as other rich countries; since 1980, however, we've fallen far behind 3/ https://t.co/QnGv4P0tSp — PolitiTweet.org

Republicans have, of course, done their best to beatify Reagan — mainly on the basis of an economic recovery that he didn't cause and the collapse of Communism, which he also didn't cause. What actually happened on his watch? 2/ — PolitiTweet.org
Paul Krugman @paulkrugman
The GOP spent most of 2020 rejecting science in the face of a deadly pandemic; now it's rejecting democracy in the face of a clear election loss. How did we get to this point? One step at a time, of course. But I'd argue that the wrong turn began under Reagan 1/ — PolitiTweet.org
