LeBron James and other sports stars should demand that Trump personally respond to their demands

Trump likes to surround himself with the few athletes who will sell their souls to appear or golf with him, ie, Tiger. Make him take a stand for or against violence against minorities. Is he for these sports heroes or the gun toting MAGA racists?

Provided that Trump would undergo a mental exam

The Trump administration has no respect for law, tradition or norms

Pompeo giving a political speech from a foreign country in violation of the tradition that a Secretary of State should not engage in partisan politics (He also may be violating the Hatch Act).
Melania giving a campaign speech from the Rose Garden. Trump like wise flaunting the HATCH Act by campaigning from the White House. They don’t care if they are violating laws or traditions. Trump thinks he is above the law.
When his is removed from office, he and his whole crime associates should be prosecuted. No hesitation “for the good of the country, to heal and unite.” The country will be served by enforcing the law against thi administration that show no respect.

We need sports stars, like Lebron James, and other celebrities to threaten to boycott

their games or performances until the Heroes Act is signed into law and the Postal Service is protected. Put pressure on Moscow Mitchell To end his vacation and sign the legislation. When the masses fear that their sports or favorite shows may not return, you will get action.

The Dems should have a massive public service announcement as soon as ballots can be mailed

An organized effort in each state should remind and urge voters of the critical importance of requesting a ballot and returning it as soon as possible. Trump has declared war on democracy and we have to fight back with fervor. Ther is too much at stake.

The media is creating a false issue that Harris won't have the support of some progressives

because she prosecuted minorities when she was a District Attorney. Should she have declined to do her job if a black or brown person was arrested and indicted for a crime? Unless they can credibly prove that she treated minorities more harshly than white defendants, their argument must fail. I’m sure that minority victims did not complain when she enforced the law.

The country club cheerleaders aren't really cheering for Trump

They’re cheering for the right wing policies that some behind the scenes ideologue wrote down for him to repeat. No successful, educated person can admire such a foolish, boorish fraud that is Trump. They cheer for the idea of eliminating taxes and Social Security and other policies that help average Americans who could never belong to a country club, but could be waiters or waitresses, or caddies. Memories of Caddy Shack come to mind

The gathering at Sturgis is a good example of the total lack of leadership from the president

Instead of taking charge in a national crisis Trump heads to the golf course and tells the governors to take care of it. Even worse when he takes a few minutes to talk about the COVID crisis, he gives false information with the result that many of his faithful followers endanger the rest of us by ignoring sound medical advice.
Where is a true leader like FDR when we need him or her?
