Here is Kurt Schlichter's latest column.

To the editor:

It has long been clear, evidenced by both his rhetoric and his actions, that Donald Trump has prioritized his re-election bid above all else, even above human life. The man who confided in reporter Bob Woodward that he knew the coronavirus was five times deadlier than the flu, and much easier to transmit, is now, once again, holding mass rallies packed with thousands of unmasked attendees. Each rally a potential new coronavirus “super spreader” event. Trump knows it and he doesn’t care because he believes that it serves his political agenda.

This is unabashedly shameless and a depraved debasement of the sanctity of human life. This president, who staunchly claims to be “pro-life,” disproves this claim by his acts of stunning hypocrisy. Perhaps Mr. Trump is comforted by the belief that his rally-goers will likely vote before they have a chance to become infected by COVID-19 and possibly die. Seemingly, this is all he really cares about.

Note from KBJ: We live in a free country, Ken. Why are you such a totalitarian? By the way, thanks for acknowledging that Trump's rallies are helping him. Where is Joe Biden? Has he come out of his basement yet today?

Great, Just Out! 51% Approval Rating in Rasmussen Poll. 95% in Republican Party. Stock Market up BIG today. Will I ever be given credit for the Markets and Economy? Next year will be BIG!

Discussions of a new book about President Trump by respected journalist Bob Woodward include audio clips of the president freely admitting that he lied to the American people regarding COVID-19.

The president traded stock market health and the well-being of America’s wealthiest 10% for the physical, and in many cases the economic, health of the rest of us. While being well aware of the severity of the pandemic, Trump publicly downplayed or even denied its deadly swath. He failed to timely utilize our country’s vast resources to stem the deadly tide. He lied to the very people he swore an oath to protect.

Surely, fair-minded and decent folk of any political persuasion can agree that this unprincipled and morally and ethically challenged individual does not deserve to be president of the United States?

Note from KBJ: Donald Trump is the greatest leader of my lifetime, Christina, and yours as well. We're going to elect him again!

…The far-left maniacs supporting Joe Biden are burning flags and chanting “America was never great.” But we know the truth: America is the most Exceptional Nation on earth, and our destiny is blessed by God!
