It occurs to me that Donald Trump’s phony fixation with a “fraudulent” election has kept him from repeating yet another series of lies.<\/p>\n

Which is that we have the COVID coronavirus “under control.”<\/p>\n

It damn sure isn’t anything of the sort.<\/p>\n

Deaths are escalating; infections are skyrocketing; we’re setting “records” for infection, hospitalization, mortality. Donald Trump is silent on the pandemic. Hell, he cannot stop repeating that other lie, which is that “widespread voter fraud” resulted in President-elect Biden’s victory over Trump in the Nov. 3 election.<\/p>\n

I am not suggesting that Trump’s silence on the pandemic is a blessing. Oh, no. We need a president who can speak truth on the issue. Trump’s inability to tell us the truth on anything does not bestow positivity on his silence; it merely reminds us of Trump’s penchant for prevarication.<\/p>\n

Indeed, his attention is now focused on another bit of “fake news,” which is the phony issue of “widespread” voter fraud that, to put it bluntly, does not exist.<\/em><\/p>\n

The good news? Donald Trump will exit the office in January. The new president, Joe Biden, will tell us the truth about the pandemic.<\/p>\n\n
