This will seem tame compared to the 78 days after the election

The single scariest blog post I've read this week is this one, wherein the author posits that win or lose, for Donald Trump the pandemic will end on November 4th.  What's frightening is that he's absolutely right--Trump is only doing the minimum now to curb the coronavirus because he has an election coming up in six weeks.  After that he will have absolutely no reason to counter the virus, one which he already views as little more than a nuisance.  

Want losing candidate precedence?  In the aftermath of Hoover's crushing defeat at the hands of FDR in 1932, Hoover attempted to extort Roosevelt, telling him that unless FDR dropped plans for the New Deal Hoover would not lift a finger to help Americans in the depths of the Great Depression.  Roosevelt refused, and Hoover kept his word (good to know that Trump isn't the only psychopath to set foot in the White House).  It ended up becoming such a disaster for Americans that Congress changed the inauguration date from March 4th to its current January 21st to prevent future Presidents from having as much time to leave such carnage in their wake.

And after a win...let's just not fucking go there.

Either way, the potential for colossal damage to America is enough to keep me pacing the floor at three in the morning....
