HOPE

Joe Biden is our new president and Kamala Harris our vice president! Like many others, for the last four years I’ve lived in mounting anguish as I watched the machinations of a leader who lives in an alternate reality of his own invention, in which black is white, bad is good, lies are truth, danger is safety—and vice versa. And what’s been scariest of all has been seeing how many people he’s seduced into believing in his upside-down reality, convincing them that they must look only to him for deliverance, a tactic right out of the dictator’s handbook.
