Can't we change the Constitution and allow Mamdani to run for President? How tragic that this intelligent, compassionate man is denied the honor, while the most horrific inhuman person has been granted two terms. While I will, of course, support any Democratic candidate who opposes Trump, I believe we're letting the best one get away. Does birth in the US translate to allegiance, compassion, competence? If so, Trump flunked all. You report the staggering numbers: "To date, more people have died from cancer and other illnesses related to the toxins than the nearly 3,000 who died in the horrific attacks that day." Other politicians see these numbers, pull out a tissue, and dab tears as they say, "Sad. Tragic." You warn us: "how shattered our nation will be if we fail to curtail the Trump regime’s continuing corruption and destruction." The word continuing, without end, is so very depressing. Pray Trump is stopped today. Not given a minute to continue his lies, destruction, and personal stain on our ideals. To Mamdani we say, "sorry", but to Trump, "please sir, more."
Rudy G and men like him have no place in our administration. It is a true shame what has happened to the US over the course of time with failed moral leadership. We must lift up the real leadership of ZM and elect more people who will lead our country like he does. Vote. Make a plan(s). Do not fear. Vote.
Beautiful essay, Steven. Thank you. But for me, despite all the mishegas of the war, of the clown show convention, of trump's beef with Canada, of the frightening slog of being able to afford our lives, I feel a great weight has been lifted. The cards are starting to fall our way. trump was so desperate, his minions so obviously unhinged and obsequious, it was liberating. Empty seats. Merch not selling. Fewer and fewer MAGA signs along the highways and in our neighborhoods. Frayed friendships reconnecting. I'm giddy with hope. There are so many righteous Democratic candidates running this year: young, earnest, not ideological just practical and pissed. Excellent fits with their districts/states. Money pouring in from the grass roots, supporting those who take no corporate PAC money, the way it ought to be, a game changer. An American transformation is in the air, not just for sweeping out the House and Senate and filling it up with new servants of the People, but also, God please, new leaders. Knocking doors and making calls gives us a chance to breathe again, to start our day with a sense that together, anything is possible. I can't stop smiling.

A wake-up call to America. Enough is enough. Thank you for spot-on commentary.
