Something I never thought I’d see. The Trump administration has Democrats scrambling to support states’ rights. While the Republicans are continuing to push for more government intervention.
“The world turned upside down…”
This thought came to me from several vectors.
The first came when I was listening to an episode of The Daily about the new TrumpRx program. What I’ve heard for the past 30 years is how (the collective) we should “let the market do what the market does”. “The government should not be involved in business.” Regardless if this program succeeds or not (I’m betting on the latter), it’s interesting to see the exception play out in real time.
The second vector was from a discussion (I would link it here but I don’t remember which podcast I was listening to, to be honest) about the upcoming midterm elections and how states are suddenly having to defend their own election laws and processes. Obviously, this strems from the Fulton County election office raid (yes, I intentionally used that word) by the FBI last week. On a personal note, I am incensed that my own vote is in that collection and I am certainly questioning any potential ramifications of them having/knowing my vote.
We really are living in the upside down.
(Man, a Hamilton reference and a Stranger Things reference in the same post. Look at me!)
