I’m reading The Economist religiously (as always) since we have about a little more than 2 weeks left until the Election. Can you believe it? Just 2 more weeks until this fucking nightmare is almost over? I can’t wait. So many people have voted by mail and early voted. I’ve already submitted my ballot. Do not sit this one out. America cannot afford 4 more years of Trump. We need a Biden Administration. We need to relaunch our Economy, we need to take care of ALL Americans, and we must begin our long road to recovery. A little over 2 more weeks! C’mon! Let’s get this done!

Until next time!
