I am surprised you are not committing John. Clearly you are a Kamala supporter like virtually every educated, near North Side friend I have. We’re all ex-Republican mostly due to bad Reagan policies and of course now more than ever, anti-Trumpers for the obvious reasons. I’m an international traveler and deeply care what our allies think. Trump is an embarrassment to America and a disgrace to the human race. He will lose and I will be very grateful, may even stop in at church for the first time in 20 years and thank the good “Lord”! Be well my friend.

John - While I greatly enjoy your newsletter, for what it’s worth, I think you mischaracterize Trumps comments on immigrants. His rhetoric, while heated, is in reference to illegal immigrants, not legal immigrants. After all, his wife is an immigrant and as despicable as many may find Trump, I doubt that he would denigrate the process that made his wife an American.

We can agree that the hateful bigotry is not confined to one party or their supporters. I am reminded of Cicero's focus on the importance of justice and fairness in dealing with others. Then there is the Golden rule and so, might one wonder if the voter who uses hateful speech has any moral right to vote?
