Portland Press Herald (Maine) says: RESIGN

On the day Trump visits our state, he’ll be greeted with thie scathing editorial. I hope other newspapers aroung the country join in.

“President Trump: We’re sorry that you decided to come to Maine, but since you are here, could you do us a favor? Resign.

You have never been a good president, but today your shortcomings are unleashing historic levels of suffering on the American people.”

I saw a post a few weeks ago about all the media outlets that were howling for Clinton to resign back in the 1990s, compared with their timidity today in regard to the current occupant of the White House. It's time for the media to abandon their abject fealty to an even-handedness that equates fascist terrorism and civil rights as merely two sides of a coin, and take up their duty to inform the public. Their First Amendment protection was instituted so they could be critical of the government, not obeisant.

President Trump: We’re sorry that you decided to come to Maine, but since you are here, could you do us a favor? Resign.

You have never been a good president, but today your shortcomings are unleashing historic levels of suffering on the American people.

Your slow response to the coronavirus pandemic has spun a manageable crisis into the worst public health emergency since 1918.

We are also in the middle of the worst economic collapse since the Great Depression. There is no national strategy to recover from the shock that is disproportionately affecting people who were already struggling to make it.

Ms Collins will be applying for a legal name change in Oct. Look for a resignation after election day, to attend to medical issues, like surgery to reimplant a soul....
