As Camero Poe, played by Nicholas Cage, looks out of the rear of the cargo plane in the film “Con Air” and spots a Corvette Stingray tethered to the plane flying several hundred feet in the air, he turns and says to a friend, “On any other day, that might seem strange.” That’s exactly the stance taken by many reporters witnessing the current changeover from Joe Biden’s presidency back to an unfettered, unmanageable and unintelligent Donald Trump. You could also say the exact same thing about President Biden’s cross-country trip this week which began with a stop to console terror attack victims in New Orleans and ended in the smoke-filled streets of Los Angeles.
Biden left on a mission to provide comfort to the victims of mass murder in New Orleans and scored points by staying focused and reminding everyone what compassion from a leader intent on helping others can do for us all. Meanwhile Donald Trump, still not officially the president, is acting like not only is the job already his but that he’s ready to kill to prove it. He recently threatened to attack the Panama Canal, Greenland, annex Mexico, bomb Hamas and open up a McDonalds in the White House. Well, maybe not the last one.
