It’s the agony and the tragedy of America.
At a time when we long for hope, we’re getting depressing news.
At a time when we need a high-minded leader to unify the country, we have a president consumed with his own political prospects.
And as a consequence, at a time when we need to pull together as a nation, it sometimes feels as though the United States is coming apart at the regional, ideological, and generational seams.
In the midst of this crisis, against the backdrop of a traumatized nation, we saw on Tuesday what this president is really about. Explaining his refusal to let Dr. Anthony Fauci testify before the House of Representatives, Trump said that House Democrats “frankly want our situation to be unsuccessful, which means death.”
