what do i think, honestly?

i think that trump is still the president, and he needs to do his job, whatever that means. no president should punt anything to the next one - the job is to address the issues at hand, not set things up for the next administration.

for better or worse, voters elected trump to make this choice, and i actually think he has a responsibility to those voters to make it.

now, he could choose to punt it. but, that only makes sense in the context of him freely choosing it, not in the context evoked by biden, or relative to goofy ideas about mandates ending. 

the president is the president until january, at least, and he needs to do his job, in all it's functions.

now, if congress flips over in january, he could find his pick loses. and, the house democrats likewise have the ability to obfuscate, if they choose.

but, we shouldn't be talking about the executive evading or abandoning it's responsibilities. it was elected to govern, and it must, whether i like the outcome, or not.
