You’ve likely heard the Chinese curse: “may you live in interesting times.”

We are certainly living in such times. Current events are difficult to even look at–I often find myself putting my hands up over my eyes.

So much is negative—the Supreme Court seems not to care about the constitution, much less the planet.

We have long seen a GOP that is afraid to challenge their incumbent, that bows down to a craven and dishonest narcissist.

But now we see a Democratic party seemingly also afraid to challenge their incumbent. I don’t see Biden as craven. He is infinitely preferable to Trump.

But in the last few months, he has aged dramatically. The presidency will do that to presidents who take it seriously.

And here’s where Biden, albeit a good man who has done a good job under really difficult circumstances, falls to narcissism and, even to a level of dishonesty–not lying like Trump–but a lack of awareness.

What can we do? I don’t know. But I feel like it’s important to do something. So, I have written the White House, written and called my Democratic senators, written the Biden campaign (replying to the donation emails they send me endlessly).  I have urged him to step aside, to let someone else take up the torch.

You can email the White House at https://www.whitehouse.gov/contact/. You can only call from 11AM to 3PM on Tuesdays through Thursdays at the White House comment line. Here is the number of that White House comment line: 202-456-1111.

Please try.

Thanks.
