A moment like this is rare.
America is floundering. Not since 1968 have I seen more disunity and upheaval.
There is an absolute vacuum of leadership in this country. Trump has failed utterly, in every way, and cannot speak to the whole country. He can only try to exploit violence and disorder for his own vicious ends.
Someone has to speak to America and show LEADERSHIP.
And that person is Joe Biden.
In my opinion, he needs to buy 10 minutes of airtime on all the major networks, cable or otherwise.
He needs to speak to America, in the manner of a presidential address.
He should convey sympathy for the COVID-19 dead. He should sympathize with the fully justified outraged so many of our black citizens feel right now. He should condemn acts of violence.
And he should offer a brief vision of what America could be.
Ten minutes. That’s all it might take.
And we’ll be able to see the beginning of the end of the Trump nightmare
