Once again, an incoming Democratic administration is taking office amid the smoking ruins of an economy brought low by the bungling of the coronavirus epidemic. Much like the Obama administration, Biden's boys and girls must try to right the ship with little or no help from Republicans. The difference is this time they know ahead of time bipartisanship is DOA. The deficit chickenhawks will be in full voice again. Paul Krugman in the NYT today has a motto for Biden; "Damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead"!
