Actually his past actions has already established that. He has made a series of moves that made the pandemic worse in the United States. He has promoted false cures and ignores science and public health measure.

Do Republicans want to steal the Pennsylvania election ?

Do Republicans want to steal the Pennsylvania election ?

Several days ago I wrote Pennsylvania Republicans want to block the vote about this effort. It was long and detailed and many readers may have missed some essential points. We should be worried about this.

To summarize, Republican State Rep. Garth D. Everett is trying to get the Pennsylvania House of Representatives to form a select committee with powers to investigate the 2020 election. I think this could be a useful idea if done a bit differently. But I think the house resolution as written is just a power grab enabling this committee which would be majority Republican to subpoena election officials and seize ballots while the count is going on.

Presidential debate is new American low-point so far

Presidential debate is new American low-point so far

But we shouldn’t worry. If our goal is to find a new low President Trump could probably get us there. The P resident feed us a series of lies, constantly interrupted when his opponent tried to talk, refused to denounce violence and white supremacy groups, and refused to commit to a peaceful transition of power if he lost the elections.

In summary, it was a bad night for American democracy.

President  Trump fails to be worthy of the office

President Trump fails to be worthy of the office

President Trump again refused to commit to a peaceful transition of power if he lost the election to VP Joe Biden in the debate last night. I think this is one of many very disturbing parts of the debate. Time described The Biggest Moments From the First Presidential Debate and this was one of them.

Damaging  American democracy

Damaging American democracy

Quote of the day:

Douglas Brinkley, the presidential historian, said, “This may be the most damaging thing he has ever done to American democracy.”

This quote is quoted from Trump Again Sows Doubt About Election as G.O.P. Scrambles to Assure Voters.

I questioned whether this refusal to commit to a peaceful transfer of power if he lost the election was Impeachable here yesterday but President Trump seems to be sticking to his threat.

Impeachable behavior?

Impeachable behavior?

President Trump refuses commit to peaceful transition of power if he is not re-elected.

Is this not an example of inappropriate behavior for the President of the United States? Our constitution assumes such peaceful transition. Is it unconstitutional to refuse this? Is it Impeachable>

Wil the House have the courage to impeach? Will the Senate have the courage to convict?

If not, are we ready for the fight at the inauguration when the elected President and the president who will not leave both show up.

CDC and political ping-pong

CDC and political ping-pong

Do you remember CDC?

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) was once considered the best, or at least one of the best, public health agencies in the world. Until President Trump, they successfully guided the US though several epidemic and pandemics. Now the Trump administration is doing their best to ignore the advice of CDC and other public health experts as he fails to protect the American people from COVID-19.

Politics and death

Politics and death

We are talking about President Trump’s politics and and how that relates to the large number of deaths due to his failed response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

I do not think President Trump was not responsible for the virus coming here. But he is responsible for the large number of deaths that resulted from his incompetence and lies about the problem to the American people.
