Just when we thought President 47’s madness and criminality couldn’t get worse…they do.

As the Fourth of July approaches, I have a confession to make. As much as I love the America I grew up in, it is getting harder to love a country with a sizeable number of Americans who support the growth of slime and America’s decline.
Those of us who recoil from 47’s criminality, stupidity, self-dealing, and yuck understand. Those who daily drink MAGA’s Kool-Aid will probably never see or smell the slime. This is America on July 4, 2026, and I doubt our ancestors would recognize our nation if they came back.
Despite the slime in our Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool, I celebrate our nation. May we all recognize the error of our ways and work towards a more perfect union in the next 250 years.
