Competing yard signs; competing visions for our future

 

There’s a yard sign nearby that reads, “Trump…the Revenge Tour.” It suggests that a second Trump administration would be about visiting revenge on his enemies, real or imagined.

Lest we think that sign sounds more extreme that it really means, consider that last week Mr. Trump suggested that Liz Cheney belongs in front of a firing squad. His increasingly spiteful rhetoric tells us what would be on his mind if he moves back into the Oval Office.

Kamala Harris’s rhetoric makes it clear that governing our nation will be on her mind as our president. Many do not like her or her specific policies, but no one cannot deny the fact that she has never made so direct an attack on the very foundations of our republic as Mr. Trump and his allies are making over and over again.

Another nearby yard sign reads, “Harris for President…obviously.” The choice tomorrow is obvious to all who hold our country and its future dear.
