(Alex Brandon | AP) President Donald Trump speaks about the coronavirus in the James Brady Press Briefing Room, Friday, March 27, 2020, in Washington.

In response to James Carroll’s March 22 letter to The Public Forum, “What happened to us?

We elected a second-rate reality-show hack and failed businessman to lead our country. That's what happened. In times of crisis, like now being the foremost crisis of our lifetimes, we need

competent and reassuring leadership. Instead, we have the opposite — a man-baby narcissist only caring for himself who puts our nation in grave danger and utterly fails to protect American citizens.

You can bet your nepotism he will profit from this global pandemic. It is his method of operation.
