Thursday - Back to Manhattan where it was mostly calm, while Trump doesn't know where the buck stops

 I was lazy yesterday and didn't post.

Today I was back in the city again. Late in the morning there was a taxi cab owners demonstration because of how they've been saddled with loans they should not have been granted and then hit with the double whammy of car sharing services and the pandemic. They are good people in a difficult place through no fault of their own.

I took some photos I'll post.

Meanwhile, I am going to sum up the biggest problem that sTrump'et has as a leader: he doesn't lead. 

Harry Truman was supposed to have had a sign on his desk that said "The buck stops here." The point was that as leader and boss, he was responsible for anything that happened and it was up to him to do something about it. He didn't pass the buck, didn't blame others for problems.

Doofus Donald Trump cannot lead because he refuses to acknowledge that he is responsible even fior situations he did not create, but that need to be confronted. He does not have the courage to admit when he's screwed up, and then wade back in, trying again until he gets it right. Instead, he blames someone else or ignores it, or simply lies. Not good at all. The Axios on HBO interview last week was damning to say the least. We need a leader,

I don't know if Joe Biden is the guy, but what we've got right now is so bad . . .

Unelect Trump. Take back the Senate from the Repulsive Republican Party.

And let's try to change America for the better. The lies have to stop.

Here's those photos from the demonstration.
