When Moscow Mitch is so insistent on giving Covid-related immunity to American companies, I interpret that as prima facie evidence that he knows many of them are guilty.
As I said in a post a couple of days ago, the evidence of Trump's business non-success was always around. The fact that no reputable US Banks were willing to lend him money should have been a tip-off to the MSM.
I will concede that there are probably things that are said by the Trump administration that are absolutely true. The problem is that when 80-90% of what you say is utterly false or made-up on the spot, it is hard to sift through what might be true. It's much more efficient to play the odds and assume it's another out-and-out lie.
I have been a baseball fan my whole life, and I try not to be an old fuddy-duddy purist. But ESPN and MLB's decision to put a mic on a player in the field and converse with them while the ball is in play is one of the dumbest and worst ideas ever. (They are actually doing this during the playoffs.)
The two American economies are on full display during this crisis, more than ever before. Also on display is how the Fed, Congress, and White House act with much more urgency when the financial markets are in distress than when actual people are in even greater distress.
