Fail to the Chief

July 18, 2020

“Watching (President Trump) could not explain his power of bewitching large audiences. The (President) was vulgar, almost illiterate, a public liar easily detected, and in his “ideas” almost idiotic, while his celebrated piety was that of a traveling salesman for church furniture.” This is a passage from Sinclair Lewis’ 1935 book, “It Can’t Happen Here.” Trump’s name has been substituted for the protagonist. Politicians like Trump have come before, but it took Trump to remind us that they can come again if we are not vigilant.

Trump has been an epic failure. The military band should play “Fail to the Chief” when he walks in. He has failed us, but will never admit it. He would rather have us die than admit he is a carnival con man, who is ready to pull up stakes as soon as the stakes get too high. We are all waiting for a coronavirus vaccine, but a majority of the people are saying that they will not take it if Trump has anything to with it. He lies about everything so how can we trust him about anything he might say regarding a vaccine. We may come up with a safe vaccine ahead of schedule, but if we could only find a vaccine for Trump.
