it's going to be bloody, it's going to be complicated, it's going to take work, and it may temporarily make things worse before it gets better, but once the medicine kicks in, things can get better.
It would be much easier for the surgeon to say, things are fine, like a miracle, it's all going to go away.
If you take that example, and you can bring it to the reflecting pool as well,
Someone looking at the reflecting pool can say, aha, we've got a major problem.
It's algae and it's cracks and it's not going to be easy to fix this, but here's how we actually fix it.
You're going to have to put a lot of money.
It's going to be shut down.
It may look dirtier before it gets better, but you basically can fix the problem.
Or you can say, actually, we're just going to paint it blue and it'll look good for a little bit, but you're not addressing kind of the main problems.
Eventually, if you just ignore it and say it's all going to go away, someone down the line is going to have to deal with it.
What Republicans do is when the surgeon is now performing the surgery, when the fire department is stopping what the arsonist did, when
you know, the person is fixing the thing.
When you see if you looked at that chart of fentanyl decreasing, it went up a little bit before it all of a sudden started sharply going down under Biden.
But all Republicans would do the whole time is blame the person who's in the middle of the surgery, the fire department in the middle of putting out the fire that was created and then trying to blame the person fixing it for the problems.
And then when they get into power,
just claim it doesn't really exist or it's all fine and you know and just continue to make the problem worse and worse and worse until adult an adult comes in the room or the surgeon comes in the room or the fire department or an actual builder who tries to fix it then it's it's easy to attack the person who's actually rolling up their sleeves and trying to get the work done because you can publicly see a person grappling with problems it's easy anybody can basically see dr fauci
It's easy to blame someone who's grappling with the science, who's trying to figure it out, who's using scientific methods of trying to identify these things.
And then just, and it's easier to say, you know who caused it?
You know what it is?
The China virus.
