Democratic officials across the country are rushing to reverse course on Covid-19 restrictions they imposed as the 2022 midterm elections near.
The sudden reversals come as major polls show that the overwhelming majority of Americans are sick and tired of Covid restrictions and are itching to get back to a semblance of normalcy.
According to a recent Monmouth University poll, 70% of Americans say it’s time to move on from the pandemic, and an increasingly small number of people say they still support Covid-related mandates.
A notable exception to the hordes of Democrats seeking to reverse course is President Biden, who continues to follow the guidance of the CDC, which still recommends universal masking indoors and in schools.
However, with Biden’s tanking poll numbers, Democrats across the country don’t want to be stuck together with him, and are looking for an off-ramp to stave off a massacre on election night.
Numerous Democratic governors this week announced that they are lifting many Covid restrictions, and a plethora of prominent congressional Democrats are now voicing support for a return to normal.

With all the talk about relaxing the mandates, I wanted to point out something which I think people would agree to. That our Halachos of Pikachu nefashos and chamira sakanta maisurah is not tied to government mandates. So I don’t know what the health experts are recommending now but I would advise people to speak to the expert doctors before relaxing.
There’s science in the polls…….
Liberalism is an incurable disease.
A virus so novel it is effected by elections, truly astonishing!
The bad news is that people, especially Americans, have very short memories, so by the time we’re voting, most won’t think of the pandemic restrictions as a negative against the Democrats.
Coupled with the fact that right before those elections SCOTUS will announce their decision on the case in Mississippi regarding Roe v. Wade (probably in favor of the State), which will remind all those on-the-fence voters why they don’t like us Republicans, the Conservatives might experience a bloodbath…
“Let’s create a panic and shut down the economy so we can govern with absolute power.”
Hence the mandates.
2 years later-
“Let’s forget about the shutdown and open the economy… because… yeah…elections…”
But kids are too young to vote, so they can stay masked.
Anyway, now after two years we already KNOW that Covid only targets kids. We have proof.
Where?
In the lined pockets and control freakin’ minds of u know who.
Yup. Team Biden following the science. Do as I say not as I do. Yawn.
Scrambling? In New York State, the mandate EXPIRED, the only question was whether or not to extend it. That’s not “scrambling”, that’s normal following of the rules previously set in place.
Btw, the politicization began with trump and remains under the ownership of the Republican party. If you get a toothache, do you consult your dentist or your congressman?
