Welcome to Home & Away. It has been quite the week. Thursday’s oral arguments at the Supreme Court strongly suggested individual states will not be able to keep Donald Trump off the ballot this November; a unanimous decision announced on Tuesday by the Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia rejected Trump’s efforts to dismiss indictments against him on the grounds of executive immunity. Meanwhile, the special counsel looking into President Biden’s handling of classified documents decided not to bring criminal charges against him but described Biden as a “well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory.” All of which contributes to the likelihood that Americans will have a choice this November between a person whose character renders him manifestly unfit for the presidency and another whose age makes him appear to many Americans to be physically and mentally unfit. Bismarck once said that “God has a special providence for fools, drunkards, and the United States of America.” We all had better hope he’s right.
