Editor,
Trump’s approach to the administration of this pandemic focuses on himself and his reelection, not on the needs of the people or the country, and such self-preoccupation has never been admired by the people of Montana, who tend to be generous, practical and helpful to others.
Our president has not been able to actively lead since he first looked at the polls and his and his friend’s chances of profiting. He reacts to that before he does anything.
He only came around to facing the realities of the pandemic when his poll numbers started to go down. At the insistence of his advisors, when they told him his people, his Republican followers in red states, were getting sick with the coronavirus, he finally tells us to wear masks.
Trump is not a leader, particularly in times of trouble. He can’t see beyond his own image in the mirror.
