No Debate
It is difficult to make sense of the chaos that was tonight’s presidential debate. In one sentence: Trump’s aggressiveness overpowered any other trait about his performance, while Biden appeared to barely hold it together. Not an encouraging spectacle to watch, but we must remember this is all mostly theater. The most important fact to consider is irrespective of side or political party or candidate: we have work to do. There is no reassuring victory in November, whether it’s the 3rd or the 15th. It is only the beginning of a long road ahead of us. It will take work, openness, grit and positivity to change this country, and the world. From all of us. There are no easy solutions; else wouldn’t they have been proposed and acted upon already? We face serious problems and significant challenges. But we can solve them if we focus on simply making the world better for those after us. One world, one species. What kind of world do we want?
