It is Time to Bring Hope and Change Back to Our Country

Nearly 12 years ago on a brisk November night we witnessed history as Barack Obama gave his victory speech in what would be the beginning of Hope and Change coming back to the United States of America after years of being ruled by failed policies and living through two very destructive as well as expensive wars.

Once again, we are asked to bring this Hope and Change back to the country in which we love by voting for Obama’s second in charge for those eight years, former Vice President Joe Biden, a man who has what it takes to once again bring us out of a dark time and fix our nation.

Now, Donald Trump has been a much worse president over the last four years than Bush was in the years before Barack Obama was elected, so we need to create much more hope and change this time around and Joe Biden is the one that will give us that.

The last four years have shown us what it is like to have a nation that lacks a leader and is run by a president who has no integrity, no compassion, and for sure no competence to lead. The next four years will either be full of hope and change or they will be more of the same of what we have received from Trump and that is the opposite of that.

Bringing Sanity and Intelligence Back to the Oval Office

Besides Hope and Change, we need sanity and intelligence to be part of the next administration and Joe Biden and Kamala Harris bring that to the table and more.

Trump has been a lot of things — hateful, racist, untruthful, incompetent over the course of his presidency, but what he has not been sane or intelligent and his words and actions over the course of his first term in office have certainly proven that.

Joe Biden is the one who brings those things to the conversation, Joe is a proven leader who leads with intelligence and sanity, much different than what we get with Trump, who has neither of those traits, and those traits are vital for a president to have.

This pandemic has really shown just how insane Trump is and how much he lacks the intelligence to make the right choices and lead the country in a smart and competent way during a crisis or not in a crisis, either way, he has proven that he is unfit to serve as President of the United States now or at any time.

Joe Biden and his VP pick, Kamala Harris have the intelligence and the sane, experienced ability to lead this country out of the fallout of the COVID-19 crisis and in other ways as well, they have what it takes to rebuild this nation into what it should be and give the American people what they have deserved all along.

The pair of Biden and Harris will not only bring much needed change and restore hope to our country, but they will make America sane again and they will indeed make us smart again and these are needed more than ever, very much so.

America is Hopeless and Lost with Trump Leading Our Country and Needs Change at the Top

America lost its way once Trump took over the reigns as President of the United States and the only way to get our country back to the hopeful and compassionate place that we were before Trump came into the picture back in 2016.

There is no hope right now in our nation with Donald Trump and his fellow Republicans in charge, absolutely none.

The 2020 election is our one shot to get things back to normal, to restore human decency to the place that had plenty of it from 2008–2016, and to bring hope back to the American people who feel so lost and hopeless with the way things are with the current administration.

The way that we get that hope back is to make the change and get Donald Trump out of office and the way that we do that is to vote for Joe Biden for our next president and take back our nation from the corruption and destruction of Trump and company.

Change starts at the top and the view from the top has been disgraceful over the last four years with Trump in charge.

Our nation is truly lost with Trump, we need change for us to get that hope back that we had when Biden was Obama’s right hand man as VP back in the 2008–2016 years and we can only get there by coming together as one nation and one people for the ultimate goal of defeating Trump.

Trump does not give us any hope and while things did change with him being the president, they did not change for the better.

Re-electing Trump During This Pandemic Would Be Devastating For the Future of This Nation

Trump wants to be given a second term, and he says that he deserves that second term, but the way that he has handled this pandemic shows us that he is not fit to lead our country and by electing him we will continue down a very uncertain and dark path.

The president had a chance to get this thing right and for once, show up and do what is best for the American people and for our country, not for himself and what is best for the select few.

Trusting the same man who ignored this virus and let it spiral out of control with another four years is a mistake that will have grave consequences for our country as we try and move forward and get our nation out of this uncertain and unhealthy time.

The next four years are make or break years for our country and if we are to survive this pandemic then we cannot do it with Trump in charge of things in our country as he has proven already that he is unfit to be president and he was unprepared to lead us during this public health crisis of the COVID-19 pandemic, without a doubt.

The next four years will be devastating and deadly if Trump is allowed to stay in office after his term is up, the next four years will be a very dark period for the United States of America if Trump is our president, the last four years have shown this to us.

The way out of this mess and the way towards a healthier, safer, and more prepared country during this health crisis is with Joe Biden, not with Donald Trump — Joe is the future, Joe knows how to deal with a crisis such as the one we currently are in and it is obvious, Trump does not.

Even Pre-Pandemic, Trump Revealed that He is In Over His Head and is Not Suited For The Presidency

Trump was never prepared for the job in front of him as president, he never had a full grasp on how to perform as the Commander in Chief of the United States of America, even before the pandemic began to rage across our nation and cause death and destruction.

Just remember the look on his face on the night that he won the presidency back in November of 2016 and how shocked he was that he actually pulled it off and beat Hillary Clinton, he did not expect to come out of that race as the winner, and he was not prepared for what was to come.

He has not led like a president should lead, he has chosen himself over doing what is best for the country and that is never good for a president to do, but most of all, he has been unprepared to perform as President of the United States and with the pandemic and all that has come with it, that became even more evident.

Trump is like a deer caught in headlights, that is how he has appeared during his presidency, unclear of what to do and when to do it.

Donald Trump had no clue how to do the job that he was elected to, not back when he was elected and not now during the worst public health crisis that our nation has seen in a century — he just has no idea how to be president and lead a nation.

It is like this, Trump did not expect things to be the way that they are as the president, he expected it to be smooth sailing and all fun and games and glitz and glamor and that is not how the office of the presidency works, this is serious business and being president is not a game, it is a difficult job and obviously, not one Trump was ready for.

Biden is Prepared For The Task Ahead of Him and Will Restore The Soul to This Nation Again

Joe is who we need as we try and get some hope back and change our nation from the dark place that it is under the leadership of Trump into the hopeful and inspiring place that it was when Barack Obama was the president and all of the great things that he presided over.

Joe is who we need to move us forward, he is the leader that we need to save our country.

Biden would have been prepared for this crisis, he was part of the pandemic playbook that Obama put in place if a situation like this were ever to come into play and that is because the Obama/Biden team lived through previous outbreaks of a virus and knew what it would take to contain a pandemic like event like what we have now.

Not only with the pandemic, but overall, Joe Biden will be prepared to lead our country from day one, he will not need to learn as he goes as like what has happened with Trump.

That is right, Donald Trump had no idea how to run a government of any kind and had no experience in politics when he became president, and it is obvious that he still does not by the way things have transpired over these last four years.

Joe would be ready and this is because Joe knows how to lead, he has been a leader his entire life.

A Hopeless America Seeks To Become Hopeful Once Again in the Post Trump Era

The last four years have been absolutely horrible with Trump being in the White House and our country has been in a downward spiral since the man took office.

The only way that we can have hope again and bring sanity back to our country is for us to get him out of office and start fresh once again, if he remains the president then there will not be any hope or change for the nation that we love for some time — perhaps ever.

I know, people may think that is kind of extreme to say that we may never recover from Trump and what he has done, but the things that he has done to America and the way that he has governed will have lasting damage for the United States, make no mistake.

We need hope again, we have not had it for four long years and we need it again.

Hope and Change!!

This is what we had for eight long years under the guidance and courageous leadership of Barack Obama and Joe Biden and this is what we need again, perhaps more than we ever have in our history, and this is because of who Trump is and what we has done.

The failed response to the pandemic, the racism and hate from him, and the pure incompetence — They all prove that Donald Trump is unfit to lead our country and to be President of the United States and that he offers no hope and no change for us.

The way forward is with Joe Biden in charge, he offers us hope and a chance to change once again and be all that we can be!
