The funny thing is I have been aware of this lack of memory for awhile but it has just gotten worse. I used to be amazed at the number of folks who could not seem to remember what things were like a decade ago but now thats been cut to about a year or so.
The cycle of political crisis generation and complacency has gone down from 8 years to 4 in the last forty years. People grew complacent over Clinton's two terms and then allowed GWB to happen, same with Obama and Trump, now we're putting Democrats in there to clean up after even worse crises than before, and putting Republicans back there after the last mess isn't even fully cleaned up.
