I've often assumed Harris didn't want to insult her boss by going against him, because I got the impression she was planning to give Netanyahu what for once she took over - especially with him escalating things further and further. Did anyone else get that vibe, or was it just wishful thinking on my part?

But people were freaking the fuck out about the Covid restrictions. Trump opposed them but also made them more necessary for longer. I guess that’s what the average person doesn’t understand.

I've read, oh, a dozen 'pretty simple' explanations that claimed to explain what has happened. All of them had merits.

I don't believe things are 'pretty simple' anymore.
