An interesting question is why there hasn’t been any noticeable push to get people to lose some weight so they are more resilient to covid. “Let’s lose ten pounds” seems like it would be a beneficial campaign for Americans, both due to covid and due to longer term problems like diabetes, heart attack, and stroke.
But who could lead this campaign?
Obviously, Trump got fatter over his term as President, which contributed to him coming worrisomely close to dying of covid in October 2020 (“Am I going out like Stan Chera?”), so it would have been kind of weird for him to promote weight loss when he wasn’t going to do it himself.
Biden is admirably slender for an ex-college football player. On the other hand, he’s so skinny, he couldn’t really afford to lose ten pounds. He’d look like he’s totally wasting away.
What about Kamala? She’s looking good for her age, but she could probably afford to lose ten pounds.
Biden keeps appointing her to hopeless jobs like squaring the circle of Democratic desire for more immigrants with the public’s distaste for overwhelmed borders.
So why not appoint Kamala to something that might be within her competency: setting a national good example by shedding ten pounds?
