The Great War. The war to end all wars, before we knew enough to number them. I still have a box of my grandfather's combat medals. Covid19 has killed more Americans than World War I. It did so in less than 5 months.

It's just additional reinforcement that the GOP's song and dance about 9/11 was all bulls-hit. They didn't care about 3000+ lives lost. They cared about a pretext for a never-ending war.
If there was ever any doubt the GOP was willing to sacrifice Americans in service of their BS, that's completely over.
A war against a virus isn't quite as sexy as a "war on terror." And what's a couple hundred thousand American lives when there are only 5 months left to fill vacant judge seats?
