Americans beg for normalcy

Abandoned by politicians, we’re asking for our lives back.

My granddaughter is 14-months old. I’ve seen her twice in seven-months. She lives five miles from us.

I haven’t worked in seven months and we’re at the end of our financial rope.

I’m high-risk, but for the tax man, the landlord, the utilities bill, it’s life as usual, ignoring the inconvient fact of a raging, out of control virus that’s making a quarter of a million Americans sick every day.

And we cancelled Thanksgiving.

The plan was to get together, cook, sing songs, love one another. But we can’t. Eight-months into the pandemic, we’re stuck with a government that refuses to lead. We get pandering platitudes like, ‘We trust the American people to know what to do.’

Obviously, many of the American people have no clue. America is sick. America is dying. But our government plays golf.

However, many millions did make a decision on what to do. We fired the administration. Resoundingly. An astounding 80,000,000 Americans voted for normalcy.

We voted for science. We voted for responsibility. We voted for leadership. We voted for government to do what government is supposed to do — protect us, help us, let us get back to our lives.
