This addled, narcissistic man-child is not a President of the United States of America. We must remove him from office. We must rescue our nation and her people.

On this solemn day, and every day, Lord have mercy on us for the grave sin of allowing him to so defile this nation. https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1264893060774793218

I understand the appreciation of plain speech, of candor. I understand disdain for the couched speech of politicians who are so guarded that they never say anything real.

I understand the hunger for leadership that will speak its mind and speak from the heart.

This is not that.

Every adult in this country—to be generous—over the age of 25, should know that etiquette and reverence are not merely "for show."

At its root, decorum demonstrates empathy and respect for others—two qualities every leader must possess in order to be fit for the job.

He is not.

Donald Trump is not some young gun who just does not get it, yet.

In June, he will turn 74 years old. He has had a lifetime (cf men of his era) to develop his psyche. He refuses to. He ultimately only cares about himself, his desires, his aggrandizement.

Rooted in our most sorrowful chapter, Memorial Day is a somber holiday (lit: holy day). It's telling that Trump, who lies to steal credit for Americans saying "Merry Christmas" rather than "Happy Holidays," refuses to recognize some holiday are not happy. https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1248619884688199682

It is time for every American adult to approach, with utmost reverence, how we will fulfill our civic duty on election day, Tuesday, November 3, 2020.

Who are we? What do we want? Who can lead us in the right direction? At 3:00pm, let us search what is left of our national soul.

What do you want and need?

I am not asking how you feel. I am asking what you want and need.

What do you expect of our country, from our country, for our country—for yourself, your family, your friends, neighbors?

Which wants and needs do you share with the rest of America?

Without differentiating between basic wants and needs, reasonable Americans agree a decent human life includes:

Love
Food
Shelter
Medical Care
Liberty
Security
Peace

Reasonable Americans also believe we consent to be governed for the chance to lead decent lives.

None of this is a new idea. Despite their personal sins and blindspots, our Founders cited the inherent equality of every person, further summarized humanity's wants and needs, and named them as among our unalienable rights: "Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."

We love our freedom, we love to sing about it, write about it, shout about it. Reasonable Americans know it is a precious and necessary ingredient for living a decent life.

Another necessary ingredient in a decent life is responsibility.

When is the last time Donald J. Trump took responsibility (not credit) for anything?

Other than the almighty dollar, with Trump, the buck stops over there—Deep State; Democrats, China; NATO; the UN; The W.H.O.; governors; the press; Obama; Biden; HRC—you name it, he'll blame it.

Donald Trump may hold the office of President of the United States of America, but he is no President.

You are not truly in charge of anything unless you take responsibility for it. Trump refuses to take responsibility for even his most innocuous errors. https://twitter.com/nowthisnews/status/958550942189801472

Unless something drastic happens, on November 3, 2020, American voters will elect either @JoeBiden or @realDonaldTrump to preside over our government of the people, by the people, for the people.

We cannot again give that responsibility to a man who refuses all responsibility.
