Editor, Times-Union:
Perhaps I could be accused of being politically too picky in my opinion of what to expect from my American president to be and do.
I would really like my president not to be an insurrectionist. Trump Jan 6, 2021.
I would really like my president not to be found guilty of being a sexual abuser (another term for rape). Trump found guilty in the case of Jean Carroll May 2023.
I would also really like my president not to be a convicted felon. Trump guilty of 34 felony counts. May 2024.
Perhaps I am too picky when I expect my president not to be a suspected pedophile by his refusal to release the Epstein files, which makes Trump look very guilty. He calls his MAGA people “stupid and foolish” for asking him to release files.
Finally, am I too picky to be upset with Mike Johnson and 211 members of the House of Representatives being Trump enablers by voting not to release the Epstein files?
In my humble opinion, America is in a dangerous immoral decline and needs to hope and pray this condition changes soon before it’s too late.
