Joe Biden will never, ever, ever, ever be “my” president.

...a year of record-low unemployment, and job opportunities for ex-prisoners and black and other minority workers...until it wasn't.  A year of thriving small businesses, after-work drinks at our favorite Chinese restaurant, and ample overtime work due to a full order book at my aerospace job...until it wasn't.  Quite quickly, 2020 turned into the Annus Horribilis. …

Seattle used to be committing slow suicide. The word “slow” no longer applies. Decline accelerates.
