Tick Tock.....

Let's get real---

 

It can't be any clearer that we are dealing with crises that need immediate attention and action:

--Covid 19

--Climate Change and the blowtorch in the West

--Racial relations

 

The current leadership has absolved itself of any responsibility for what we are all suffering now, and has no plan for any of the above emergencies, much less the next four years, other than to support the Trump cult.

 

President Trump LIED to us about the Corona virus.  There is blood on his hands and the hands of his complicit supporters in Congress for the deaths of 150,000+ Americans for their duplicity and inaction.  He is still lying about Covid 19 and in fact suppressing CDC stats that are crucial for medical professionals to treat the ongoing pandemic.

 

The raging inferno in our western states is a direct result of the mounting effects of climate change.  Our administration is pinning the cause of these fires on 'forest management'.  Maybe thinning of forests would be helpful, but what is happening out there is way beyond solution by thinning forests.  We need to provide global leadership on taking steps to mitigate the effects, not withdrawal form global alliances and efforts to stem the causes.  This president and his administration disparage science, not only on climate change, but also on the pandemic.

 

Racial unrest is something that Trump is fomenting by supporting white supremacists and accusing Democrats of being anarchists.  He wants to cause panic by scaring the country about immigration, and about violence in the cities.  All he can do is scream at his rallies that Biden will bring violence to the suburbs, take away all your guns and bring socialism to the US.  It is a testament to the stupidity of his supporters that they blindly accept this kind of crap.  He does not propose anything for the next four years.

 

We see complicit Republicans trying to back up and support Trump in his attempts to defend against the Woodward tapes.  Aside from Trump's shamelessness about lying, what is so stunning is the Republican's acceptance of lying as simply acceptable.  Take a look at Senator John Kennedy of Louisiana's response when asked whether it was important or significant that the President lied to the American people about the corona virus.  All he could keep saying when asked repeatedly was that he did not want to give any significance to "Gotcha Books".  Well, it's not the book, Senator, it's the lie articulated by the President himself on tape that you are being asked about.....same answer!   Same answer from Lindsay Graham of South Carolina, or Thom Tillis of North Carolina.   All these people, including Trump's supporters have simply accepted the fact that their President has lied over 20,000 times since he was elected and that is just fine with them.  Is that American??  Do we all approve of lying?  I don't think so.

 

That is just one aspect of the moral corruption that is rampant in our country now.  We have one last chance to stand up for truth on November 3.  For all my Florida friends, we are a battleground state, and polling shows that we are just about tied for support between the two camps.  The time for listening and trying to reason with those who support a man and leaders who accept lying as a way to live is over.  I implore all of you to make sure you vote, and make sure you reach out to all your friends to make sure they understand how important this moment is.  Unless we are able to carry this election for the Democrats, our country will be corrupted beyond repair. 

 

Four more years of Trump and the current complicit leaders will leave our country; the world; all of us in fact, looking for places to hide.
