For those unfamiliar with the term, "ethos" is a person's or entity's character -- its sense of itself. Some people are honest, trustworthy, passionate, compassionate -- all in being "true" to who they are. But the "Donald" has no ethos. He wants to be everything to everybody. He has near absolute power as President of the United States -- and it has corrupted him absolutely.
Even more than when he was just a "failed businessman" -- the "Donald" is now a failed human being. He will do anything or say anything to be in every one's good graces. He will lie, cheat, switch sides, make up things, point his finger at others "giving false blame," over and over again. He practices the now-time-honored political trick of the "big lie." Say something over and over again for long enough and then at least one sycophant will start the mantra of "there must be something there if people are talking about it;" "if there's smoke there's fire;" and all that.
The "Donald" is unfortunately, leading America. And it may take a generation or more to lead us back to "truth, justice, and a truly American way." Please let this time under the "Donald" pass quickly. Resist.
And on a purely personal note. Linda -- please be well, get better, get healthy.
