Trump as president of the United States of America.<\/p>\n<p>This crazy election season is winding down to what I hope and pray is the correct end. That would be a decisive defeat of Trump and a <em>victory for Joseph R. Biden.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>I cannot even begin to predict how the end arrives. I am left only to speak from my heart and head that we return to some semblance of what we used to think of as \u201cnormal\u201d political processes.<\/p>\n<p>The late Sen. John McCain used to refer to it as \u201cregular order.\u201d He detested the way Trump would seek to circumvent Congress, how he would tweet his public policy without bothering to advise his closest key aides.<\/p>\n<p>I am trying to wrap my noggin around what he might do were he to win re-election to a second term. I do believe Biden, a product of government and one who is fluent in the way it is supposed to work, will restore the \u201cregular order\u201d his good friend John McCain cherished.<\/p>\n<p>The lying, dissembling and treachery have been an unconscionable aspect of the presidency on Trump\u2019s watch. I point directly to the pandemic deception that Trump brought on this nation. He knew it was bad from the get-go but kept it from us, declaring it would vanish in just a few days. It hasn\u2019t. It has killed nearly a quarter million Americans.<\/p>\n<p>And this clown, Trump, wants another term? He wants four years to deceive us?<\/p>\n<p>I have been saying until I run out of breath that Trump\u2019s pre-politics life was spent enriching <em>himself.<\/em> He didn\u2019t devote a single minute of his time to public service. And it has shown itself dramatically during his time as president.<\/p>\n<p>Biden on the other hand has committed virtually his <em>entire adult life<\/em> to public service.<\/p>\n<p>Is Joe Biden the perfect alternative to Donald Trump? No. But he is a damn sight better suited for the complexities of the nation\u2019s premier public office.<\/p>\n<p>As for Donald Trump, I just want him to vacate the people\u2019s house &#8212; <em>my house<\/em> &#8212; as soon as possible. Some of us predicted long ago that he would be a disaster as president. He needs to go before he inflicts permanent damage on the nation we all love.<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"twitter-share\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?hashtags=MAGA%20%23JohnMcCain%20%40JoeBiden&#038;via=jkanelis\" class=\"twitter-share-button\">Tweet<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By JOHN KANELIS \/ johnkanelis_92@hotmail.com I will go to my grave never surrendering my deep and abiding loathing of Donald J.
