NAME CALLING ON THE ADULT PLAYGROUND

President Trump is quoted as saying coronavirus is the Democrats' latest hoax.     (Reported by NBC news.)
Yet almost simultaneously the first American victim of the disease has just died (as reported on 2/29/2020). He died in Kirkland, Washington State. Gov. Jay Inslee, State of Washington, declares state of emergency.
What are we citizens to do? A sixth-grader could tell you: We need to elect class leaders who don't flip excuses and don't blame someone else. In our damaged democracy, we need political leadership that accepts responsibility and speaks truth. Jesus: "You shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." John 8:32. Ridicule and name-calling from the bully-pulpit is making our nation un-free.
