A Sick, Sick Man

Just two weeks until the presidential election. And the end of the man who called dead American soldiers “losers,” who said he probably got infected with the coronavirus from the families of those dead “losers,” who said Americans “should get over the virus,” who refuses to tell others to wear masks and makes jokes of those who do, who asks that his opponents be thrown into jail, who The New York Times rightly calls the “greatest threat to American democracy since World War II.”

Of course, this is the same man who hasn’t said for sure he’ll surrender his office peacefully when he is defeated. So, on top of his lying, narcissistic, corrupt incompetence, he remains an outlier to the basic principles of the Constitution. The sooner he is gone, the better for this nation, and it cannot come soon enough.

The divisiveness he has caused and furthers in the place of seeking unity remains an appalling mark on his administration. Polarization of the populace is his hallmark, a partisanship that has seeped from the political to the cultural at his behest, a worsening of life in America which he has encouraged.

It becomes almost impossible to write about him, so mentally unhinged and frightfully ignorant are his responses. He is a terribly sick man. May the electorate in two weeks give him what he truly deserves: a dismissal as America’s biggest loser. Ever.

I and my family have already voted. And we voted eagerly and determinedly Democratic for Joe Biden. May God bless his election.
