President Elect Biden Continues To Be Prevented From Starting An Effective Covid Response.

The continuing power struggle between two men with diametrically different philosophies on how the US should handle the virus has left the nation rudderless at this critical moment — forced by Trump into a governing crisis as he refuses to let the transition to the Biden presidency proceed and pass on knowledge that could be critical to slowing the spread of the virus next year.

Admitting defeat, like real defeat, not trying to spin the defeat into a ‘win’ must be one of the most mentally laborious tasks for a narcissist. Leaving the highest office in the land is not easily spun into something other than a complete rejection. It far cry from leading a company into bankruptcy and spinning that as ‘win’ because debt its has been discharged. That is the President’s current situation and it is extremely foreign to him. Spinning the rejection of the voters to a win by claiming fraud is falling on deaf ears and even people in his own party are indicating that they will let the baby play with the rattle for a little while longer ‘what the harm'? But the clear and decisive loss is something he will eventually have to come to terms with divorced from sad allegations of fraud.

The President’s inability to comprehend a loss that is not a ‘win’ has now left the nation listless in a turbulent Covid sea with conditions expected to considerably deteriorate in the next days and weeks. This morning the President did finally admit Biden won, not legally of course just through mathematically rigged results. This may represent progress in the President's own unique way.
