There is No Double Standard in Health Care, Law Enforcement or Politics

Our economic models are based on our December 26, 2016 forecast:

"Under any conceivable scenario, the current situation is very bad, and I mean toxic, for democratic institutions in general and for people of color specifically. Bottom line: our Fully Adjusted Return Forecast** indicates that, over time, things will get much, much worse....." From: Trumpism. https://www.dhirubhai.net/pulse/trumpism-william-michael-cunningham-am-mba/

Unfortunately, we were right. By January 6, 2021:

1. An administration-inspired violent insurrection attempted to prevent the Congress of the United States from certifying the result of the 2020 presidential election. This is, of course, the true nature of the republican party: racist, greedy, angry, entitled and violent. Black people know that crowd: it's the same mob seen at every lynching. The noose below was constructed at the US Capitol on January 6, 2021.

2. A foreign government (Russia) attacked and compromised all critical federal information systems. It is entirely likely that members of the administration granted access in exchange for cash.

3. A pandemic resulted in the deaths of (eventually) 500,000+ American citizens. The US death toll may reach 2 million as COVID mutates, changing in a way that allows it to evade all efforts to eradicate it.

4. We have seen the expansion of a systemic program of police violence targeting African American males. This, in addition to the uneven impact of the COVID virus, show the true nature and status of African Americans in the United States.

As we stated on June 11, 2016, ("Why Trump Will Win" https://www.dhirubhai.net/pulse/why-trump-win-william-michael-cunningham-am-mba/ ),

"all that is required to push Mr. Trump into the White House is a surge in voting by biased, uneducated, low to moderate income white voters. This, the biggest demographic in the election, must be incentivized to participate. Mr. Trump's behaviour and language does so."

That language led to January 6th, and we forecast this behaviour will continue throughout 2021.

These events confirm what we have known all along: there is no double standard in health care, law enforcement or politics.

These systems work exactly as intended.
