In recent days I’ve seen a number of comments or editorials which focus on a dichotomy between reacting to the crisis of the moment (which is portrayed as the ICE raids, military deployments and general attacks on democracy) and focusing on issues like Medicaid (which is portrayed as politics as usual and an inability to recognize a national crisis.) I agree with the sentiment behind this but it’s wrongheaded and I want to explain why.
