This Week’s Discussion:

We continue our discussions of what the coronavirus and our pathetic response to it should teach us about the issues that will be at stake in the 2020 election.

The first is all about the wisdom of reelecting a narcissistic, ignorant, incompetent criminal...or criminal organization full of them. More information emerges about just how pathetic Trump's "response" to the crisis has been. Any thinking person will not be surprised; any trump supporter will not be interested. Will it matter to whatever is left in between the two?

We also talk about the GOP's escalating war on democracy. Wisconsin was just the tip of the iceberg, as Republicans have demonstrated that they will use the coronavirus to assist their efforts to suppress voting. Make no mistake that the 2020 elections will be all about this war on democracy; Anyone who thinks shame or hypocrisy will limit the blatant criminality has really not been paying attention. The Supreme Court shows us that there may be no stopping Republicans' election theft.

Let's use these events to further the conversation on inequality. What we are learning about who is "essential" and who are the true heroes of our society should inform our thinking on inequality. Let's start rewarding American workers more fairly, and let's end our idolization of the rich, and all those who profit off the toil and the misery of others.
