So let's be clear: these weren't honest errors made in good faith. Trump, but also people like DeSantis and Hannity, played cynical games with American lives, and bear responsibility for many thousands of unnecessary deaths. 4/ — PolitiTweet.org
Paul Krugman @paulkrugman
Each time they were looking for political gain — let's not worry the stock market; let's tell a story about recovery in time for the election; let's not admit that we were wrong a month ago. So they gambled with tens of thousands of American lives. And the nation lost 3/ — PolitiTweet.org
Paul Krugman @paulkrugman
I haven't see people make this point as clearly as it should be made: Trump and his allies have committed the same deadly sin three times. First, they refused to face up to the threat; then they pushed for a premature end to lockdown; now they're dithering as Covid-19 surges 2/ — PolitiTweet.org

Based on positivity rates, Houston looks as if it's only around a week behind AZ. Florida not much more. And they *still* are barely reversing their reopening 1/ — PolitiTweet.org

"Yes, Dr. Peter Hotez, Houston’s internationally known virus expert, warned of the dangers of opening early, but what did he know? The guy wears a bow tie." https://t.co/eHibk3BdqU — PolitiTweet.org

This logic has been completely clear since the beginning. Claims that there is a much better alternative are zombies: more than a decade of failure to deliver should have killed them, but they're still eating Republican brains 3/ — PolitiTweet.org

Repealing the individual mandate hurt the ACA but didn't kill it, because subsidies have kept many healthy people in the marketplace. But states that restored the mandate have seen premiums drop 2/ https://t.co/W0LuzYCyzl — PolitiTweet.org

Good line from Conway. More than a decade of promises from GOP, never an actual plan — not because they're stupid, but bc single-payer or something like Obamacare are the only alternatives https://t.co/7hm4YKCKZB — PolitiTweet.org

Houston. Tests basically haven't gone up since early this month; positivity has increased fivefold, and is now at a level that suggests runaway infections. Deaths not spiking yet, but how long can that persist? https://t.co/jLx5SuXvCr — PolitiTweet.org

Paul Krugman @paulkrugman
In effect we're set to impose devastating austerity on an economy not remotely ready to handle it — and to head that off we'd need major policy action in *less than a month*. With the White House still in denial, what are the odds of that happening? 7/ — PolitiTweet.org

But expanded benefits are set to expire at the end of next month, and for technical reasons will actually vanish for most workers on 25 July. There was supposed to be OK bc of a rapidly recovering economy — but the failure on virus control means slow recovery instead 6/ — PolitiTweet.org

Case in point: wage and salary income fell $800 billion (at an annual rate) between Feb and May, but this was more than offset by $1.2 trillion in unemployment benefits. This kept lockdown of contact-intensive sector from spilling over into a much wider slump 5/ — PolitiTweet.org

If the jobs don't come roaring back, which they won't, cutoff of benefits and failure to provide aid become huge problems. The economy has been ugly, but cld have been much uglier — and is set to become so unless there's very quick action 4/ — PolitiTweet.org
Paul Krugman @paulkrugman
What makes this especially problematic is that GOP policy — both Trump and McConnell — has been based entirely on assuming that jobs will come roaring back. No need to extend special unemployment benefits; no need to aid state and local govts 3/ — PolitiTweet.org
Paul Krugman @paulkrugman
What we're seeing in the Sunbelt is a failed reopening; whatever job gains there have been from the end of lockdown will now stall and maybe go into reverse, and the virus will weigh on the economy for a long time 2/ — PolitiTweet.org
