A question raised over the last four years is will American institutions stand up in the face of a Fascist Presidency?
Our institutions have not done as well as we might like. In this pandemic, the Center for Disease Control (CDC) has made a series of decisions designed to placate El Supremo, even though the decisions will be killing American voters.
Today, for example, the CDC changed its recommendations on virus testing and social isolation for people who have been in contact with someone contagious. The CDC now recommends less testing and more socializing. So far they have given no medical reasons for the changes. Now more Americans will die; but tRump, who wants to end testing because the pandemic makes him look like himself, will smile on CDC leadership.
The problem with institutions is that they may be led by sociopaths who made their way to power in cold blood.
