**STRAIGHT TALK**-So, let's go through what this President has done to prove Khrushchev right:

**Covid:** Denying it, stalling help to States, bringing witch doctors up as credible.

**George Floyd:** This President is making George Wallace look like a left winger. Our country has not been in such bad shape with race relations in decades. That's not to say we didn't have deep issues, but when you call a fireman it should not be a man who brings more fire.

**Doctor Fauci:** Like him or not, when the White House sends out Hit pieces on their closest advisor in a pandemic, this is just plain sick!

**CDC:** Demanding that the CDC remove information that hurts his position is tantamount to assaulting those who get sick because of his action or inactions.

**Invading American Cities**: Sending federal troops to cities?

**Families:** Our race relations are leading to violence and destruction, at the same time as mothers are burying their children.

**Garcetti:** Then you have our Mayor, calling police killers.

**POLICE:** Why would anyone want to be a cop today? Especially in Los Angeles.

**What to Do About It:** You may agree or disagree with me, but either way, get out and vote in November.
