Trump’s return to the nation’s pinnacle comes with bolder and brasher attacks on American Exceptionalism borne by his character that has a flaw for every ill.
By just holding the office, this spotted character eclipses the collective decency of preceding Presidents, even if marked on a curve. He totes his own tarnish in such volume that it renders exceptionalism bad.
The purging of these stalwarts by this President on the eve of an election, in the face of a border dispute with a country that has already occupied part of Guyana since 1966 and in the advent of oil, questions why he has chosen to disembowel the nation’s foreign service to place highly sensitive matters in the hands of politically appointed novices, for reasons that do not benefit Guyana- and at a time such as now.
