I sympathize with your and your family’s loss. Prayers!
I also sympathize with your feelings about the events concerning our country. I tend to agree with basically what you express.
Trump was definitely no Reagan. He has a very combative style, which is good to have against your enemies, but must also be managed in order to build allies and coalitions to your side to achieve success at this level of play.
I’m reminded of the famous coaches, Woody Hayes and Bobby Knight, who despite their own greatness ultimately succumbed to their own weaknesses. Their greatest enemies turned out to be themselves.
Trumps heart has always been in the right direction, but I’m not sure his mind followed thru accordingly. Always seemingly getting distracted and off focus by injecting some meaningless slight when proper course called for maintaining momentum towards a more purposeful direction.
My biggest disappointment in Trump... two major things:
1. Focusing exclusively on the “Campaign“ and not the “Election”, while the Democrats did the reverse.
2. Not using the broad powers of the federal government by forcefully instructing the DOJ and DHS to prepare for election fraud and be ready to investigate, secure court warrants, and impound evidence. If we are to believe that we were subjected to foreign and domestic criminal interference in our national election, what good is it to have a federal DOJ and DHS agency and not use them?
