Yikes. You don't understand the difference between state and federal government, and WHY they are different? You don't understand the founders designed the constitution so that most legislating would be done at the local level, so people could move to another community if they didn't like their government? And you don't understand the difference between military members and private citizens? Thinking all private citizens can be regulated like a military is exactly how you get to totalitarianism. If we were in China right now you'd be explaining to us how Chairman Xi's lockdowns saved us and his social credit score keeps us safe. You are not "enlightened" at all and have truly shown yourself to be a useful idiot.

WASHINGTON — President Joe Biden on Thursday issued two executive orders mandating vaccines for federal workers and contractors and announced new requirements for large employers and health care providers that he said would affect around 100 million workers, more than two-thirds of the U.S. workforce.
"We've been patient, but our patience is wearing thin," Biden said, making a direct appeal to the 80 million people who he said were still unvaccinated. "Your refusal has cost all of us."

No federal vaccine mandate?

One of an intermittent series of reminders of the cluster situation that was the trump admin. So we remember it wasn't just a bunch of mean tweets.

In comparison, the Biden admin has been scandal-free. Any of these scandals from the trump admin would constitute the worst event in the Biden administration. And there are dozens and dozens of these trump scandals.

All from July 2019:

During a phone conversation with the newly elected Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy, President Trump repeatedly presses him to open an investigation into Hunter Biden, the son of potential 2020 presidential candidate and former vice president Joe Biden.[34][35]

Secretary of Labor Alex Acosta resigns amid controversy surrounding the non-prosecution agreement he made with Jeffrey Epstein as the United States attorney for the Southern District of Florida.[10][11][12]

President Trump tweets that progressive Democratic congresswomen should "go back and help fix the totally broken and crime infested places from which they came", drawing widespread criticism, even from some Republicans.[14][15][16][17]

President Trump denies that his previous tweets made towards several Democratic congresswomen were in any way racist.[20][21][22]

The House of Representatives votes to hold Attorney General William Barr and Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross in contempt over an administration decision to add a citizenship question to the 2020 census.[26]

President Trump claims he did in fact try to stop the crowds chants and "was unhappy" with the chants of "send her back" from his supporters during the Greensville rally on July 17.[28]

President Trump draws criticism for his tweet describing Congressman Elijah Cummings' Baltimore, Maryland, district as a "disgusting, rat and rodent infested mess".[40][41][42]

Right wingers will not read your post. But it is helpful to the rest of us because we lose track and forget just how much of a complete clusterfook Trump's 4 years were. Each and every day he would say sh!t and do sh!t that soiled the office that he held. And made the country look inept and foolish.

But a good portion of blame of what Trump was allowed to do to this country, his political party and the national discourse needs to go to the media. They loved the ratings so much that they normalized what Trump was doing and they loved the fact that he made ratings for them every day. In the same manner that Jerry Springer made ratings.

Absolutely. They figured, "This goof can't win, but meanwhile he's good for clicks" and gave him billions (with a "b") in free pub.
