It Was Always Politics

How do you know? When the Polling overrides the science, it was never about science. Leana Wen on CNN: Gee, There's This New Study That Says That School Closures Have Caused Major Developmental Delays in Schoolchildren.

You.

Don't.

Say.

But I thought kids were resilient -- the teachers unions and their Democrat politician servants told me so.

Click thru because the memo from Brandon's own pollster is only available as an of image, so I cannot quote it.

The study examined student performance in Uruguay, where they could compare students whose schools had never shut down, and students whose schools had shut down and then reopened. The big takeaway is that shutdowns harmed students, and the lower on the socioeconomic scale the student, the greater the harm.

So what are they going to do about the harm they have caused? Pretend that it never happened. "Move on" is the advice in the memo.

Hat tip to The Other McCain: The Science™ Is Actually The Politics™

Keep in mind that every Democrat in Congress supported the Biden administration’s policy of firing millions of workers (including nurses) if they did not comply with the COVID-19 vaccine mandate. And every Democratic governor and mayor was on the pro-lockdown side of the argument. What the polling memo tells Democrats, basically, is to pretend that none of this ever happened and hope voters forget.
