The One Good Thing About Trump
He’s honest. It sounds like the punchline to a joke, doesn’t it? Yes, he might be a manipulative, exploitive, opportunistic liar and conman who’s made a living off a reputation he didn’t build, only to flip-flop, backtracked, minimise, and pitifully excuse ever miniscule attempt at a cohesive character with even a shred of dignity he’s ever tried, but at least he’s honest about it!

The President I'd Rather Follow
Everyone has their political leanings. This article is not about politics. It’s about leadership. I’ve become rather unnerved by reading the news lately. 2025 is not the year I was hoping it would be. I believe that elected officials should be leaders among the population that they represent. For example, a mayor should be a leader of and in his/her city. An elected board member of a nonprofit should be a leader among all who serve or benefit from that nonprofit. A state senator should be a leader in their state. By that same logic, a president of a sovereign nation should be a leader among his nation.

The Fire Alarm is going off. No one cares.
The fire alarm has been pulled. The alarm is going off. The lights are flashing. No one is panicking. No one is even paying attention to them. Smoke fills the air. The flames grow. We continue to go about our day as though the building isn’t on fire. It’s nothing more than annoying noise in the background. Maybe if we ignore it long enough, someone will shut it off.
