It's the coddling, stupid.

All hale the trumpers for they must be coddled at all times. The latest example is the way they blew the recovery for us by refusing to be vaccinated and going maskless anyway. Yet no one dare mention this obvious fact. The media certainly won't. I guarantee you that Biden will receive more critical coverage for trying to clean up their mess.

This is a far from new situation. All during TFG's presidency, his followers were coddled. The media did backflips to understand him and his followers and excuse everything they did.

We will never make progress unless they are forced, somehow, to grow up.

Can you believe we were force fed that #$##% for four years, even on CNN and MSNBC? And some are still pushing it?
