After reading Today’s Edition two thoughts came to mind. The first is that policy issues like tariffs, immigration, foreign policy and climate change to name a few are complicated, not easily solved and frankly many voters don’t care about and are not issues that influence whom they vote for.

Maybe Eastman, Giuliani and Powell will pay a price and go to jail along with Trump but until we as a country through our elections make politicians accountable and vote them out of office honesty will become a rare and valuable commodity.
