I am a 71-year-old white woman who has a master’s degree from a good university and raised two successful sons as a single mother. I have also lived part of my life in the suburbs. I am exactly the person who is not supposed to vote for Donald Trump. But I’m going to do so enthusiastically.
This is how I see the current election. It’s as if a dreadful, deadly virus has suddenly spread all over America. There is a vaccine that has been tested for about eight years, but with very little if any success. There is a new vaccine that shows great promise in testing but the CDC thinks may be a risk. Most of the people will choose one of these vaccines. However, another group of people won’t use either one. They know the old vaccine doesn’t work but they think the name of the new vaccine sounds like a dirty word — possibly even a word that God doesn’t want us to use. These people will instead take a couple of asprin. It is widely known that asprin has no effect on the virus.
I’m taking the Trump vaccine.
