To the Candidates: Unless you are Donald Trump, you must be very careful with the words you use.

Words can be hurtful. They can be as green as envy or red as a rose. But they mean something.

Unless you are Donald Trump.

Then you can be as unpatriotic as you wish. You can write love letters to dictators. You can threaten to lock up your opponents. You can threaten them with bodily harm. You can threaten to kill them.

But the people will not accept it from anyone else.

There is a price to pay if you try.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden

It seems like the whole world is inside out and twisted out of shape. Somehow a special set of rules now exists where a madman has been granted permission to act like a lunatic, treat the world with the cruelty of a psychopath, lie, cheat, and bully with impunity. All the while everyone with the power to stop it looks away as if it’s another normal day.

One day we will find out the reason Trump makes the enablers and sycophants tremble before him in fear. I hope I’m still alive when that happens so that I could savor the moment when karma comes to visit those who sold out our country.

When that day comes, the whole world will see the bravery and heroism of Nancy Pelosi and Adam Schiff.

primary today, I would vote for:
