To the editor:
Sheela Clary’s comments regarding her inability to move forward after the Trump presidency reeks of an insipid self-centered indulgence of a “poor me” mentality.
Please “get over yourself.”
Ordinary citizens are hungry, cold, and nervous about whether they’re going to be evicted. Questions such as “When will a job be available” or “how can I help my children with virtual learning” consume people on a daily basis. Also,there’s the mental anguish of whether or not they’re going to wind up sick with Covid in the hospital. Perhaps they will never see family again.
We have a new president; Trump is gone. Let’s wish President Biden every success possible, because his success is our success. Keeping Trump in the forefront of your mind is an exercise in what appears to be self-pity for all you imagine you have been through as a result of his presidency.
Let’s all have hope, not leftover trauma.
