Why do so many of you assume Covid “goes away” if Biden wins?

COVID is the perfect vehicle for Dems. Lets them pick economic winners and losers, force through new mandates, possibly raise taxes, gives Biden/Abrams a nice excuse to blame poor economic performance on for eight years, etc

it's like the 2009 "Bush economy" that Obama used until he literally left office

It was amazing


It didn’t become Obama’s economy until 2019

virus will still be here but just like the daily death numbers in Iraq/Afghanistan magically went away in 2008, a Biden win will mean the media will focus on other "news" items in 2021....

The Chynu Flu ain't going anywhere. Pretending it is a much bigger problem than it is will be the part that goes away, until they need an excuse to control people again, like in 2024 for example.

we'll see some kind of garbage like "new research indicates that covid is no worse that seasonal flu and an audit of case records reveal over-counting of actual cases in the interest of public safety".

And when many of us scream "we've been telling you that all along"... it will never make the light of day.

Because when dems are in office the world loves us again, homelessness disappears, whatever the unemployment rate is is the new norm and no one goes hungry. As to the flu things will be much quiter and any problems with it will be DJT's fault going forward

The only thing that changes is the media narrative. Biden will immediately be hailed as a leader taking decisive action against the pandemic (without actually doing anything). It will be called a "breath of fresh air" or a "refreshing change of pace", or something like that.

CDC will declare the Pandemic over. Biden will point at the low fatality rates and say something folksy like "why in the world are we locked in our house over the flu?"

I don’t have the same optimism. If they can continue to manufacture an economic crisis they can force through “needed” measures

The thing i dont understand is the same people wanting to shut the economy down is blaming the economy on Trump....so in my mind the election is now on who do you think will recover the economy best...Well there is only one answer to that

It gives government more control. Why would Dems want to get rid of it?

Socialism is being implemented under the guise of COVID.

It’s not going away.

Joe will borrow Obama's magic wand and poof it be gone. They will be too busy doing things I do not want to even discuss. Biden will not win.

Go to Thehill.com on K street DC. There is an article of a big blue wave coming.

No same person understands it. Just like all of their other bullshite. BLM peaceful (but really violent) protests are great and justified but protesting shutting down a country for a virus is just a bunch of idiot rednecks. Most of em are probably racists. The list of hypocrisy and idiocracy out of these goofy bastards is endless. But what's worse than that is that millions and millions of "Americans" actually believe it and go along with it like it's gospel.

Bc the media focus would suddenly shift to the endless lawsuits, and criminal investigations of trump. I have zero doubt in my mind once he is out of office the left will try and bankrupt him unending investigations, and trials.

Biden wont win..Trump will tell the world to suck his Covid penis after his victory...the only thing they can do after that is unleash something worse just to frick the world completely. Lets hope that is not the plan

For the same reason that New York State has the highest number of deaths in the country, over 40
Percent of which occurred in nursing homes, all nursing homes were forced to take back COVID positive patients, where they were free to infect others in their close living quarters and the news media with a straight face blamed the Muh Essential Workers for bringing in the virus.

It won’t go away, but Biden’s election will magically heal the land. Just like Barack the Benevolent united us all and caused the oceans to recede.
