The hot air balloon

In this open season of divisiveness and hate, our President is being diminished like fish bait. People forgetting his accomplishments and character traits. They lack empathy for what's been on his plate, show loyalty to the one facing a criminal fate, that one who is afraid to debate: the liar, the racist, the cheater, the snake. The hot air balloon they elevate.

Well written with great sentiment. I always follow the news from the US and elsewhere. At the moment though, the news is tough to watch. Here's hoping for better times, for the US, here in the UK and the world. Best wishes.

I wonder why. What reasons can we think of that Biden would not measure up to four more years? Thanks for sharing your political point of view. Sara K

such divisiveness and turmoil not just in our country but the world. Although I'm not a Biden fan, he was publically diminished yesterday...I fear he'll continue to be...kind of an escape goat or whipping post right now.

Would you buy a second hand car off Donald Trump? America does seem to be in turmoil, followed by Britain, who has totally lost its identity.

Hi Paul, It made me sick to my stomach to see what the press did to President Biden and that special council yesterday. Ugh..we are in trouble in the US
