Trump Takes a Wrong Turn at Albuquerque


When President Trump announced he would be deploying federal agents to Albuquerque this weekend (as well as in Chicago) I immediately thought of the old Bugs Bunny cartoon where the wascally wabbit proclaims he should have taken a left turn at Albuquerque.

I know there's nothing funny about what Trump is doing. We're now back to more than a 1,000 people dying of COVID-19 a day and nearing 4 million COVID-19 cases. His response is to arbitrarily send in federal troops into the Democratic controlled cities because he feels like it, believes it is a sign of strength and, above all else, will keep him in office (and it could if the federal presence continues into November).

All we're going to see with Trump is more suffering and death whether it be in Albuquerque, Chicago, Portland or anywhere else. He is turning the American dream into a nightmare. Not only do I think Bugs Bunny would have made a better President than Trump, but he would be less cartoonish.
