Staying On Track

I am well aware of my tendency to slide off-message, which is why for this iteration of Vox Populi I persuaded an editor to protect me from myself.

The stated purpose of this blog, which I am downright obsessive about, is to expose, denounce, censure, and anathematize unpresident Donald Trump for lying to the American people, for flouting the Constitution, for making a mockery of the presidency, for failing to take responsibility for anything, for ignoring public health and public safety, for criminalizing victims, for violating more rules, laws and Constitutional clauses than any president in history, for excessive corruption that would make even Boss Tweed blush, and for infecting his entire administration with an attitude inimical to the American people.

Yesterday my editor politely but firmly informed me that I have recently slipped away from that mandate and that I need to get back on track. She was right.

I'm going to take a couple of days off to retool and realign my thinking. The timing is good, I think, as we enter into this unprecedented election season.

We are all going to have to be at our best throughout the next five months.
