Wrapped in a balloon. Shoot it down, ol Joe, keep us safe. Will only say that Joe's Sinophobia seems to match Trump's. This attempt to scream about a spy balloon (China has satellites, last I checked, and boomers and their centrist friends keep talking about TikTok as a Trojan horse, so why would they need this?) is both funny and scary. It really means the jingoists are going to start screaming about everything Chinese in an attempt to either rob our wallets for more $ to defend us, or to actually get into a real war with them. 

Remember what I said before. These people don't care about us. The line is going up! is literally their only ethos, and after decades of stealing and destroying the republic they just want to Blame China. And, unfortunately, it seems like it will work. I mean think about things like the OD epidemic (never mind the pandemic, for just a second or the next one which they don't want to stop) and how even that they try to blame China for. It's just crazy. And once again, they will spend money for themselves but never for the people and improving the country. Yeah, Biden is a hair better than Trump, but this is just nuts. In a time when we need more international cooperation than ever. 

But no. Instead we get some fake game where decent economists become cheerleaders. Oh yay look at the unemployment numbers (then why are so many people ODing, deaths of despair etc etc?). But why don't they discuss the Labor force participation rates? That matters more IMO and speaks to things like deaths of despair etc. Sad state of affairs, people. Be safe out there.
