Today has been a very interesting day indeed. When I worked in the Fortune 500 arena I had the opportunity to spend a fair amount of time in Europe. Over the course of that time I developed some long term friendships. Today I have had three of those people reach out to me. All in relation to the American political landscape.
Much of the news in Europe today centered around our Presidents admission that he had been stricken with COVID-19. From what my friends shared with me there doesn’t appear to be much compassion for Trump. What was striking for me in these conversations was how vested many Europeans are in our upcoming electuon. The consensus seems to be that if Americans don’t understand the damage that Trump has done to our relationships.
Trump once said that he preferred immigrants from Nordic countries than from shithole countries. He’d probably be very disappointed to know that the affection he has for the peo ppl le from Nordic nations is not an affection that the feel for him.
I’ve read quite a few social media comments today about whether the Presidents COVID-19 diagnosis is real or a hoax designed to garner sympathy for him in these final days of the pre-election period. I understand the skepticism that people are expressing. I don’t think that if this is a ploy it was well thought out. I think any empathy that people will feel will be directed at the more than 7,000, 000 Americans who have been afflicted and the 200,000 plus who have lost their lives.
What is so sobering about this is that India, a country with 1 35 billion people has fewer cases and deaths than the US. The population of India is 4 times that of the US. The plight of the nation in regard to COVID-19 lies squarely on the shoulders of DJT. KARMA is real.
Think!!
