In recent times Donald Trump regularly attacks America during his campaign speeches. It gets old from a man who aspires to lead the country. An example comes from remarks made Tuesday, 8 August 2023, in New Hampshire. He complained about the indictments against him, deplored ever getting into politics and said:

“I could have been relaxing at Mar-a-Lago or in the south of France ― which I would prefer to being in this country, frankly.”(1)

What a excellent idea!  He should be encouraged to follow this preference.

I also like the thinking of Steve Benen who wrote for MSNBC on Thursday, 10 August 2023, following an interesting review of Trump's long-standing criticisms of America, "it's more than a little jarring to see the Republican, at different times, both claim the moral high ground on patriotism and run down his country in ways no former president has ever done."(1)  It's standard hypocrisy for him which his base regularly overlooks in their cult leader, but would not for any opponent, Republican or Democrat.

Let’s think together again, soon.
