1 year agoThe supreme court decided the outcome of a Presidential election and no one batted an eye lash.
That was pretty weird, IMO, and a hint of what was to come.
Oh, I think it encouraged the Republicans a lot more than you’re giving credit for.
So it may feel like things didnt go crazy, but I’d argue everything about 9/11 would have been different if Democrats were in office. Probably would not have invaded Afghanistan, for example. Probably wouldve had better handling of the economy leading up to the 2008 crisis.
But with that said, I do understand that for many, it didnt feel like it had a big impact.
