This from a reader. My response:
Well, I appreciate your bravado, but I question your understanding of the magnitude of the power that the U.S. federal government has over the common American. Unless we make major changes quickly, you will live in a country that has:
• Committed to make rich people richer and poor people poorer, by looting the treasury to provide billionaires with ever larger tax advantages.
• Rejected science as the pillar in policymaking.
• Abandoned any pretense it may have had towards environmental responsibility.
• Sent women back to positions of inferiority.
I’m not saying that there is nothing you can do about this, but denial isn’t a road to a solution.
Religious statements fly in the teeth of science, but even the most ardent believers in God are going to have trouble with the meme here.
The reason men have nipples is that their gender isn’t assigned until about six weeks after conception, when chromosomes trigger hormonal changes that differentiate male and female anatomy.
It’s possible that Americans are so angry that the Trump administration has ruined their country and its democracy that paid advertising for Republican candidates is having no effect on them.
We can only hope.
Obviously, the endorsement of a much-despised president didn’t help, but what chance did this election-denying moron actually have in a sophisticated state like Minnesota?
