I am concerned about being exposed to that virus that is spreading like an epidemic around the country. I am not speaking about the coronavirus. I am speaking about that other, even deadlier virus.
I am speaking about the political cowardice virus that is spreading rapidly around the country, and at every level of government.
This virus currently manifests as a total inability of many politicians to condemn lying, and racism, and general hate speech.
The center of the epidemic seems to be in Washington DC, in the White House, but we see outbreaks everywhere, even at the local level. And a terrible side effect of this virus is that it causes the infected politicians to become spineless, making them less able to stand up for anything.
The only way to combat this virus is to protest, and stand up to the infected politicians. The only real cure is to wash away the political cowardice virus with a cleansing blue tsunami in 2020..
