Astounding Hypocrisy

     So, the President is right back to where he has been all along, downplaying the effects of the corona virus based on his own experience. "Don't be afraid of the virus," Trump says. Those are words easily spoken by a man who has access to the very best socialized medicine in the entire world. AND, all this while he is trying to roll back the Affordable Care Act and take away insurance for approximately six million people, during a pandemic. And because of the lingering effects of this corona virus, it becomes a preexisting condition which would bar millions more people from health care if the president has his way.

    And don't worry, I know he hasn't done it, at least not directly, but I still have faith in the smallness and pettiness of this president and I still say he will find a way to insult or belittle people, directly, who have suffered this disease and who have died from it. He will find a way to say that people who died from this virus weren't strong enough or that it was somehow their fault that they died. You watch, he'll do it.

Full Speed Ahead!

    Whoever advised Vice President Biden to stop running his attack ads in critical states should be fired immediately.  Just because Donald Trump is stupid enough to go and get himself infected is no reason to hold back anything. Now is the time to really put the campaign into overdrive and not let up til the day after the election. Do you really think the Trump campaign would let up on Joe out of some sense of trying to come together as Americans? Of course not, the idea wouldn't even enter their heads. But that's what the Democrats are doing. "This cannot be a partisan moment," says Vice President Biden, "It must be an American moment. We have to come together as a nation," he went on to say. 
    Very good sentiments, but let's not kid ourselves about how the Trump campaign would handle things if it were Vice President Biden who was sick and not able to campaign for at least two weeks. They would likely increase the number of attack ads, not decrease them!
