Happiness, inside-out

Our president has always struggled some with spelling, but this week it is worse; his translation skills have been turned inside out. Here we are in the middle of a pandemic, an issue that should be first in our thoughts and efforts, a circumstance currently worsening by the hour, with a government full of non-responders, and predictably and consistently Trump has taken this crisis, misinterpreted it, and put it in the back seat – no, he has booted it out of the car – to make room for his full-blown dem panic. Not only is our president panicked by the inevitability of a democrat in the White House, on a deeper level, (for him, likely subconscious), he is panicked by the possibility of an actual democracy working for justice and progress. I could point out the continued complexities our new administration will face in the form of a hostile, politicized justice system (the Supreme Court, federal courts and many state courts), and the ongoing unavoidable divisiveness in our legislative branch, thus making our election efforts likely and barely only a baby step toward any real justice or progress; but even if he could understand this, he is too busy crying to actually allow it to soothe his hurt feelings. Regardless, think of the progress we might see if we could take this effort being wasted on this presidential dem panic and expend it instead on the pandemic.
