I feel heartbroken. My heart sinks on the death of Herman Cain.

Knowing that this man died after being exposed to a deadly virus that we were all aware of and he did not take adequate self-protection measures. What breaks my heart is that this will not make the slightest bit of difference to Trump and his enablers.

It should be a wake up call to the president. He should feel some empathy for Cain's family., He should care that a colleague died. He should act like a human being and learn from it and see that masks and distancing are important. But Trump will just brush it off and carry on along his reckless path that will directly result in many more tens of thousands dying. That breaks my heart, that this is our leadership in America today.

He doesn't have the ability to feel any compassion or empathy. We are so screwed if he gets elected again.

This will require making sure we are telling the truth to everyone we know to offset the lies being told by 45 and the Russians. We are under attack, no different than Pearl Harbor, the enemy this time is within. We need to make sure everyone gets to the polls. We need to make sure they know how to correctly fill out an absentee ballot (the rules in our state are so stupid).
