Trump of course had the same policy but wasn't successful. Will be interesting to see how committed he is to potentially upsetting Ireland's golden goose.

People voted for Joe Biden and his policies, he’s beholden to no one. You can’t say “time will tell” in an attempt to appear clever, there’s no evidence for your speculation.

Maybe I'm getting blasee after decades of sequential incidents of "the most important/significant/critical election in American history". That he was elected as senator in 1972 is half-damning. Credit to his service and appeal, but that's five decades of not relating to the non-poilitical class? Interesting vote-getting technique at a local purveyor of fine firearms. Wear your "i voted" sticker, get $100 off an AR, $30 off a pistol, 10% off a bolt action or $50 off an AK. I'll bear that in mind in a couple of years. Shame no discount on shotguns. Anyway, I guess the next important event is January and those run-offs for the senate.

I think you would see a stark difference in imagery had this been a Trump celebration party, in that masks would be on far fewer people. I've honestly not seen anyone in these images not wearing a mask. I'm sure there are some, but I would guess less than 1%. As much as the imagery of groups of people may look similar, that distinction is the difference between likely transmission and unlikely transmission. I agree with you it's unfortunate that it's happening, but since it is happening, at least it's happening the right way.

The democrats are supposed to be all about being safe during COVID. I’m not complaining , it shows how relieved people are that Trump lost but if these were republicans celebrating a Trump win there would be uproar. Also shows how we will all interpret the same actions of different people depending on what we support.
