Malverne and Hempstead
21 years have done little to dull the shock and grief for many who remember that day, particularly for those who lost loved ones. Yet, much has changed since 2001, and as time marches on, growing numbers of young people have no deirect memories of the deadly attacks.
The rain did not stop many from coming to Malverne’s Reese Park to pay respects to those killed in the Sept. 11, 2001 terror attacks.

Malverne Mayor Keith Corbett focused his remarks on the importance of keeping the memories of that terrible day alive within succeeding generations.
This year, the ceremony focused on a tree planted in Mary’s memory in a small park between Malverne’s Long Island Rail Road station and Connolly Station restaurant.

Marie Giallombardo attended the ceremony in support of the Ruchalskis. She represents the Life for Gina Foun dation, founded after her own daughter, Gina, died of can cer in 2011 when she was just 22 years old.
The tree was planted last year, and Malverne’s depart ment of public works completed an overhaul of the park.
“I happened to be walking one day and I bumped into Carol where they had the tree planted in Rockville Cen tre. That’s when we started doing all this together. Our daughters brought us together.”
Village Trustee Tim Sullivan and former trustee Lauren Touchard first brought the tree lighting idea to the village board in 2020.

Mayor Corbett said, “We’re honored to be one of the first communities to recognize pediatric cancer aware ness month. We stand in full support of the Ruchalski family and their organization.”
“My daughter went to nursery school with one of their daughters, so I’ve known them for a long time,” Griffin said. “I knew Mary. She was a lovely young girl, and I saw how difficult it was for her to go through this horrific cancer.“It’s a tough issue to tackle state by state, because

“Malverne was the second town, and it just keeps going and going,” Ruchalski said.
Sue Grieco/Herald friends and family of Mary Ruchalski gathered with elected and community leaders in the park across the tracks from Malverne’s LIRR station for the lighting of the gold tree, dedicated to Mary, who died of cancer in 2018, at 12.
Ruchalski added, “They did everything out of the kindness of their heart. It was so heartwarming.”
“DPW, the union itself, did all the planting,” said Mal verne Mayor Keith Corbett.
“I read in the Herald one day that a young girl passed away from the same type of cancer my daughter did,” Giallombardo said.
pediatric cancer is everywhere,” Griffin added. “But cer tainly we can bring more attention to it. One thing I’d like to see in our state budget would be a line item that directed money to pediatric (cancer) research. I’ve had other friends with children suffering from cancer, and those cancers are often the least researched and the least funded.”TheMary Ruchalski Foundation directs all proceeds towards cancer research and families dealing with pediat ric cancer. To date, the foundation has donated more than $300,000 to Cold Spring Harbor laboratories’ rhabdomyo sarcoma research and $100,000 to families struggling with the cost of medical treatments.
Assemblywoman Judy Griffin was also on hand to present Ruchalski and Giallombardo with special cita tions for their work with pediatric cancer awareness.
“We thought it was a cause worth noting and sharing with the community,” Sullivan said. “We’re happy to carry on the tradition and expand it. It’s the least we can do for a population that needs our help the most.”

While state law is in place protecting pro cedures to end pregnancies, some local officials say these old restrictions would have effectively outlawed abortion clinics like those run by Planned Parenthood while adding barriers to women accessing specific kinds of health care.

“Restricting access affects overall safety, as well as men tal and physical health,” she said.Mehra believes access to abortion is crucial to the overall wellbeing of a woman’s health.
“It’s shocking that over a million people on Long Island currently live in a community where there are still abortion restrictions on the books,” Kaplan said. “We know that these laws were enacted with the sole purpose of getting between women and their right to choose.”Thestate senator also believes officials in affected communities should follow the lead of the Town of North Hempstead.
The Rev. Roger Williams of First Bap tist Church of Glen Cove believes in the sanctity of life, but is politically proabortion. Williams is not in favor of the atmosphere surrounding Roe, however, believing the movement too politically motivated.“Idon’t want to sound like I’m making a judgment against individuals who are pro-life and anti-abortion, but I don’t see that movement being completely con cerned with life all together,” he said.

“The reassurance of access cultivates a relationship of honesty between health care professionals and the public,” she added.Abortion restrictions in the Town of North Hempstead were adopted in late 1971, a year after the state senate legalized abortion up to the 24th week of pregnancy, and two years before the U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling on Roe v. Wade.
“Thererules.are those running for office right now trying to repeal these efforts,” Stilliti said. “As a proud pro-choice elected official, we have to make sure every loop hole is closed, and closed tight.”Kaplan expressed her con cerns over what she described as the U.S. Supreme Court’s reckless decision to hinder constitutional rights. She believes it’s the responsibility of legislators like her to fight for rights at every level of gov ernment, stressing that there are people who will use politi cal discourse to restrict the rights of women.
Will Sheeline/Herald
Drury, a mother to two young boys, says she refuses to raise her children where access to reproductive health care is restricted.“Nowwith abortion rights under attack, we need to keep New York a safe place for reproductive care and get rid of these draconian laws.”
Some are urging lawmakers repeal of restrictive abortion statutes found in five Long Island municipalities. They suggest these restrictive laws set a precedent for future restrictions to abortion access. Those who violate these laws could face jail time and fines.
Yet, there are many who believe over turning Roe was the right decision. Some, like anti-abortion advocate Marie Coyle of Glen Cove believed abortion simply dis missed the potential and value for human life.“I think we’re tampering in areas that we should not,” Coyle said. “You can con trol your body before, but once you have a child within you, you can’t control that, it’s left to God.”
Williams believes for and against abortion have been very harsh to women, and refuse to provide an adequate sup port system for mothers and children after birth.

The concerns were heightened further with a temporary move this year to Con ference A Central, where the schedule was based more on geography than school size. But they were temporarily eased with a 6-3 win over Elmont in the season opener on Sept. 8 in which six different players found the net. A seventh different player tallied in a 5-1 loss to Floral Park two days Coachlater.Robert Anderson blamed last year’s outage on his players bypassing shots in search of the perfect play but believes that some new talent and some tweaks to the lineup can put his players in a better position to succeed.

The offense is being set up by the solid midfield tandem of junior Joseph Mejia, who already has a goal and two assists through two games, and sophomore Angel Landaverde, a converted outside back who had a goal and assist against Elmont.

The defense is led by senior center backs Robert Staubitz and Thomas Guari no, who also scored last week. Staubitz rarely gets beat by opposing forwards because of his speed and physicality, while Guarino’s smart decision making and communication with the outside backs makes him a dependable player.
The lineup was bolstered further this week with the return of agile 6-foot-3 goal keeper David Rogalo, whose large wing span makes the net smaller for the opposi tion when he comes out to challenge shots.

“Please wear a mask, out of courtesy and in solidarity with those people whose health is immune-compro mised.”
GOv. KAthy hOchUL announced last week the end of the mask mandate on public transportation — including busses and subways in New York City, as well as the Long Island Rail Road — shedding a requirement first instituted at the height of the coronavirus pandemic more than two years ago, which has been largely ignored over the last several months anyway.
Gov. Kathy Hochul lifted the state-imposed mask man date last week, which was put in place by her predeces sor, Gov. Andrew Cuomo, at the height of the coronavi rus pandemic in early 2020. The move affects not only the LIRR, but also the rest of the Metropolitan Transporta tion Authority, including New York City buses and sub ways, as well as the Metro-North Railroad.
Where health officials once considered mask-wearing a must for those traveling in densely ridden, close-con tact spaces like trains, buses and subways to curb the spread of the virus that causes Covid-19, Hochul argued her policy shift keeps in step with the latest health data, and high vaccination rates.
But some public health experts — like Dr. Bruce Hirsch of the Zucker School of Medicine at Hofstra and Northwell — are concerned the call to make masks optional may have come too soon. Especially as winter approaches.Whilethe spread of the virus has stabilized, one omi cron subvariant considered the virus’ most contagious strain to date, “is pretty good at sidestepping from immu nity and causing infection, even in people who have been infected before and vaccinated,” Hirsch said. “And I think that this will increase the amount of transmission and increase the amount of Covid infection in our area if large numbers of us are going without a mask.”

“Fresh air replaces the air in LIRR train cars once every five minutes,” Minton said, in a statement. “Air fil ters are in the process of being upgraded,” said Minton in aRoughlystatement.athird of the air traveling through the car is fresh air pulled from above the roof of each car where two units of heating, ventilation and air-conditioning systems are mounted. A key advantage of the LIRR is its many stations — 124 in total — that allows for cars to reg ularly slide open doors and let in fresh air.

At least one of three safeguards are currently in the MTA’s control: ventilation. It’s by no means a cure-all for stopping the spread of Covid-19, but high-quality ventila tion reduces the concentration of coronavirus particles in the air.

transmission on public transportation, “especially where specific safeguards are in place — such as face coverings, well-functioning ventilation systems, and minimal talking by riders.”
Despite Hochul’s change, free masks will continue to be available to anyone who requests one, Minton said. The MTA says it’s distributed 56 million free masks since the beginning of the pandemic — more than 60,000 per day on Hirschaverage.says

ON Sept. 7, the County Legislature’s minority leader, Democrat Kevan Abrahams, urged his Republican colleagues to expand the income caps for seniors and the disabled that would allow them to be partially exempt from their property tax assessments. Later that day, the Legislature voted to approve the increased income caps.
County Legislator Tom McKevitt said it was only fair that Nassau seniors and those with disabilities get the same relief as those in New York City. “We found that especially with the cost of liv ing in Nassau County, especially with higher property taxes in Nassau as com pared to New York City, “ McKevitt said, “it would only be fair if there was equity between the taxpayers in Nassau and those in New York City.

It was a celebration at the new J Wing Patient Pavilion at Mount Sinai South Nassau in Oceanside last week as hospital and construction leaders gathered to celebrate the raising of the final steel beam. The $113 million facility is expected to welcome its first patients in 2024.
The steel beam was adorned with an American flag on one end, a small tree on the other, and a large Mount Sinai banner draped in the middle. Damian Becker, Mount Sinai South Nassau’s public rela tions manager, said the tree represents the fact there were no injuries or acci dents on the job site, and traditionally, is supposed to stay in place.
It’s a tradition dating back to some of the earliest days of modern construction. When a building is almost completed, the builders celebrate its construction by placing the last steel beam at the highest point in what’s known as a “topping out” ceremony.Mount Sinai South Nassau upheld this custom with its own topping out ceremo ny last week, celebrating the completion of the four-story J Wing Patient Pavilion at Oceanside’s One Healthy Way. More than 40 people — including board mem bers, construction workers and other staff members — gathered for photos with the final steel beam of the building’s construction.Attendees — clad with white hard hats — signed their names onto the beam, and cheered when it was hooked to a crane and hoisted up to the top of the building, where it was placed securely.

Joseph Fennessy, immediate past chair of Mount Sinai South Nassau’s board of directors, says the medical group needed to consider where the health care industry was going. A lot of what hospitals traditionally provided was becoming part of services now taking place in the offices of physicians and ambulatory surgery centers.
“When we partnered with Mount Sinai in 2018, we shared our goal to grow our cardiac program at this hospital,” Shar ma said. “In supporting that goal, they’ve worked with us toward expanding cardiac services at the hospital including — openheart surgery, expanded structural heart programs and electrophysiology.”
The hospital has learned many new techniques to optimize exposure and infection prevention within the hospital following the pandemic, Sharma said. For example, all emergency treatment areas are now built as single rooms with hard walls — instead of curtains — to prevent the spread of disease. The air filtration system is designed such that each patient has clean air coming in from the outside in their rooms, while hospital air is fil tered

Mount Sinai’s operating rooms are fully functional and viable facilities, the spokesman added, but open-heart surgery and other cardiac procedures require larger rooms to accommodate all neces sary equipment — which the new patient pavilion will provide. Standard operating rooms of this scale require 250 square feet, but the J Wing Pavilion will provide operating rooms of up to 600 square feet.
The beam was placed up past the fourth floor and toward the back, said Mark Brundage, a sales and operations worker for JC Steel, who created the beam. Even so, its tree was still visible from Nassau Road.

This building would make Mount Sinai the only hospital on the South Shore to offer cardiac services, Sharma added, assuming it’s approved by the health department. The pavilion would also be a boon for the hospital if another global pandemic were to occur in the future.
Theout.pandemic did slow the pavilion’s construction, however, thanks to both ill ness and supply chain issues. What was supposed to have been opened by now is now expected to start serving South Shore patients in 2024.
Dr. Adhi Sharma, president Mount Sinai South Nassau, said planning for the J Wing Patient Pavilion began in 2018 after learning neighbors in and around Oceanside were seeking cardiac proce dures over the river in Manhattan.
“The challenge for us as board mem bers was to figure out how we’d be rele vant in the new world of health care,” Fennessy said. “We realized we need to be an institution that performs more tertia ry-type work — like open-heart surgery — things that are more complex, to meet the needs of South Shore residents.”

The only way to answer questions about remov ing walls is to assess the whole house: where to dis perse loads, how to brace exterior walls against wind shear, how to handle snow loads and wind uplift, where pipes and wires would be relocated, how the spaces function and will be finished. Package all this to be reviewed by building officials and receive permission to build — sounds simpler than it is, especially when workers leave details out or change something and we start adjusting all over again, only after much discussion, time and money. That’s also part of the age-old process. Avoid chang es once you decide, save money doing so and your old house will be like new again.

Making an old home newer
Ask ArchitectThe Monte Leeper
23 202215,September—HERALDHEMPSTEADMALVERNE/WEST 09/15H4
Readers are encouraged to send questions to yourhousedr@aol.com, with “Herald question” in the subject line, or to Herald Homes, 2 Endo Blvd., Garden City, NY 11530, Attn: Monte Leeper, architect.
Q. Our new home is pretty old, from 1920. We want to update it and have a lot of concerns, with taxes if we enlarge it, cost if we get rid of walls, widen ing our driveway to park more cars and what you think about getting rid of our garage for more room instead of building up. It’s a one-story with low ceil ings on the second floor that are really too small for bedrooms. My parents have been reading your column for many years and suggested you could help. What can you tell us?
A. It’s hard for me not to feel as old as your house when you put it that way, but after writing this column for 33 years, I’m often doing work for children of former cli ents, and have gotten your question thousands of times. First, almost any thing you do that adds space to your home also adds value, and value increases taxes. Cosmetic changes like siding, win dows or an asphalt or con crete driveway generally don’t affect the value, but luxury materials, such as stone facing or interlocking pavers, will.
Most of the time, people complain about taxa tion but rarely, if ever, do they collectively attempt to do anything about it. The methods for deciding value, or even using value as a gauge for tax increases, are questionable, especially because we used to be taxed based on square feet. As we transi tion into not leaving our homes, communicating digitally, the tax system perpetuates without chal lenge.Inmany villages and towns, garages are required, and hard surfaces for any kind of paving are considered “impervious,” not replenishing groundwater. There are limits on how much of your total property you can cover. You will need to investigate your specific jurisdiction’s require ments. Sidewalks, patios and driveways are all impervious, but pools and decks generally are not.
You’ll need your property survey, which is a map of your lot, house size and location, but you’ll also discover that surveyors generally don’t provide the dimensions of porches, sidewalks, driveways or steps. Get out a tape measure and accurately docu ment the property’s hard surfaces if you’re in a community that requires impervious-area informa tion. When you hire an architect or engineer, that’s what we have to do.

I don’t think he had a plan. I don’t think there was some nefarious plot in the works. Like you and the rest of Amer ica, I have observed Trump moving through his days and weeks and years in a reckless and reactive mode in which he does and says stuff and then sees what
“I’m troubled too by the role the (for mer) president plays in contributing to this atmosphere,” Silber said.
It isn’t even Democrats and Republi cans who are so completely at odds, as it is MAGA supporters and the rest of the country. The supporters of Donald Trump continue to deny the results of the 2020 election, despite any number of recounts, decisions by judges tossing out claims of fraud, and the public pro nouncements of Trump’s former attor ney general, Bill Barr, that the clams of a
hen I learned that Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago desk looks a lot like my Aunt Maddie’s, I wasn’t surprised. Auntie M, the unfortunate product of a disordered mind, compounded by an instinct to hoard, further complicated by a sweeping disregard for others’ opinions, dumped all her paperwork, from utility bills to MRIs of her brain, in her “junk” drawer. That was the generic term for all of her drawers and closets, which were stuffed tight with papers and States.ofwasn’tAuntfolders.Fortunately,MaddiepresidenttheUnitedShedidn’t
You can see proof of this in his law yers’ rolling defense of keeping classified documents at Mar-a-Lago. It went from calling the dis covery of top-secret papers a hoax, to saying the FBI planted the papers, to claim ing he “declassified” them before he snatched them, to insisting he was in the pro cess of giving them back. There wasn’t one moment of concern for the yearslong work that might be undone. Not a single gesture of contrition for possibly endangering our assets overseas. I think even Aunt Maddie would have grasped the sobering consequences of such careless handling of top secrets.
Because the period leading up to the War Between the States has numerous paral lels to what is taking place today.
But the bumbling president at the time, James Buchanan, did little to cool tensions. In his inaugural address in 1957, Buchanan described the sectional ism between North and South as “happi ly a matter of but little practical impor tance.” The U.S. Supreme Court, he said, would settle the matter “speedily and finally.”Thehigh court did, with the Dred Scott decision, which held that Congress had no constitutional power to deprive slavehold ers of their property rights. And Black slaves were property.Theseeds of the Civil War were sprouting.
Robert Reich, the U.S. labor secretary under President Bill Clinton, has said he believes a second Civil War has already begun, but less of a “war” than “a kind of benign separation analogous to unhappily married people who don’t want to go through the trauma of a for mal divorce.” Reich sees a situation in America similar to Europe’s Brexit, “a lumbering, mutual decision to go sepa rate ways on most things but remain con nected on a few big things.”
tion.Let’s not begin following the continent now.
In the two years since President Biden’s election, the divisions have become wider, and more violent. There was Jan. 6; Charlottesville, Virginia; and now the threats against FBI agents after the court-backed raid of Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort, where he had stashed clas sified documents.
Why all this history?

Nina Silber, an American history pro fessor and the president of the Society of Civil War Historians, who has written several books on the subject, said in a Boston University interview that she saw similarities between the Civil War era and now, particularly in “the tendency toward heated and extreme political rhetoric” and “the inability to find politi cal middle ground.”
He is not a thinker. I don’t believe he ever worried that unfriendly eyes might fall on these protected documents, or that someone in the crowds of Mar-a-Lago
A number of prominent historians are now asking whether we are close to Civil War 2. “Civil War” is now a rallying cry by some Americans who wear the slogan on T-shirts. Others train in rural areas with assault weapons. Since the Mar-a-Lago search, media sites including Gab and Telegram use phrases such as “lock and load” and “civil war.”

We, on the other hand, have been blighted in recent years by a showboating president without a moral center, a man who holds nothing sacred aside from his own endless push for power. A jester who never leaves the stage.
But when you take the oath of office as president, and swear: “I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, pro tect and defend the Consti tution of the United States,” you need to follow all the rules for keeping state secrets secure. When you leave office, you don’t get to take classified souvenirs.

guests might be that nefarious person who looks for breaks in security and seiz es the moment to do harm to the United States.Ignorance, though, is not a defense. We still don’t know if Trump will be held legally accountable for flouting the laws of the country that apply to every other citizen. We don’t know how this will end, but the entire affair speaks to the man’s fantasy that he is somehow above thoseI’mlaws.thinking about this as our friends the Brits mourn the passing of Queen Elizabeth II, who reigned for 72 years and died last week at her summer home at Balmoral. She ascended the throne when she was 25 and stayed for seven decades. She was the living, breathing essence of duty to country and service to her citi zens. Propriety was the guiding principle of her reign, and she won the loyalty and love of her people by elevating civility and democracy and stepping back from any personal fanfare or glory.

KRERAnDiiss
Just last month, Sen. Lindsey Gra ham, a Republican from South Carolina, said there would be “riots in the street” if Trump were prosecuted for taking the classified documents from the White House.And only months ago, Rep. Madison Cawthorn, a North Carolina Republican, insisted that the U.S. elections system is “rigged,” and, he added, that would “lead to one place, and that’s bloodshed.”
When I thought about Aunt Maddie, I realized what makes Trump tick. Nothing. Nothing is ticking. I see him as 100 percent reactive and zero percent con templative. I believe that he indiscrimi nately grabbed whatever paperwork looked of possible interest at the White House and later shoved it in the drawers at his golf club.
Does it seem likely that Trump pored over these documents, achieving a sophis ticated level of comprehension? No. Nah. Never. He just grabbed the stuff like a hyped-up teen robber sweeping the money out of the till at a 7-Eleven on his way out. He didn’t stop to count the bills.

As the pandemic subsided and schools reopened, many school adminis trations wondered aloud why newfound resources like Zoom had to go. And somewhere, the idea was born to use the remote classrooms set up during the pandemic to keep schools operating on days where weather made it impossible to step onto campus.
Schools are right to resurrect the snow day
That meant no more snow days — a concept that, at least for several school districts in Nassau County, was shortlived. While not ignoring the benefits of remote learning, these districts decided to keep at least some snow days in place, believing that there’s a benefit to pro viding that unexpected day off for their students and teachers.
Web: www.liherald.com
It’s difficult to determine how — and when — the modern snow day came into being, except that it likely required the means to communicate a delay or can cellation — telephones or radios. Today, such alerts are spread through more direct means, like text messages and email.But the excitement those alerts gen erate is almost certainly no different in 2022 than it was in 1922.
ournalist and bestselling author Susan Orlean once described a snow day as “literally and figura tively” something that “falls from the sky — unbidden — and seems like a thing of Unlesswonder.”yougrew up somewhere snow didn’t exist, you likely woke up many a winter morning as a child, excited to see nothing but glistening white outside your window that wasn’t there the night before. That almost guaranteed the one thing nearly all schoolkids hope for dur ing the coldest months: a snow day.

In today’s climate, that is very rare. It is clear she has searched much for answers concerning the science and the exploration of the age-old question of when life begins, and I hope she continues to do so.
I found Ilana Greenberg’s op-ed, “Scientists grapple with meaning of life. Why should judges?” (Aug. 18-24) extremely thoughtful and well written. She showed her willingness to research all sides of an issue.

New York City has completely done away with snow days, but the city should follow Long Island’s lead. Sure, there are fewer snow days than there were before the pandemic, but our dis tricts are working hard to balance the need to educate with their students’ need to just live sometimes. And they are doing the right thing with a hybrid model that essentially splits the differ ence.Keep the snow days. At least some of them. They’re not just a thing of won der, but a chance to create lasting mem ories, and a fresh appreciation of the value of an unexpected breather.

Herald editorial
It’s not that education isn’t important — it is. But a snow day isn’t a lost day. It’s a delayed day. Any class missed because of snow in the winter months is made up in the spring. And if Mother Nature is kind and doesn’t interfere with classes, those spring days become time off for students and teachers any way.All of us deserve a pleasant surprise, like a snow day, once in a while. And all of us deserve a chance to enjoy the world around us, even if it’s just for a day here and there.

But as part of the “new normal” cre ated by the coronavirus pandemic, it seemed the snow day was becoming a relic of the past. Lockdowns closed schools, forcing millions of students across the country — and around the world — to turn to technology. Thanks to computers, web cams and the inter net, lessons could continue without the need to step inside a classroom.

I hope Greeberg continues to research and look for answers on the Roe v. Wade ruling. I would also suggest that she Google “A lifelong connection that starts in the womb.” It was written on Aug. 7, 2017, and adds a whole new dimension to what we know about cells in utero. Our technology, showing how life begins and grows from conception, gets better every day. She might want to read “Unplanned,” by Abby Johnson, about what she came to know, and how.

Trump repeatedly singled out Bush — the one-time frontrunner who counts both a father and a brother as one-time occupants of the Oval Office — in a move that signified that Trump was going against the Republican Party of old. Sen. Bernie Sanders had similar suc cess against Clinton in 2016, albeit not quite as successful. The Democratic Par
this is true in all areas of science and philosophy, and prevents better under standing and clarification of many “truths” that no longer stand up in our ever-changing world.
So how will Trump frame 2024? Can he recapture any of his 2016 anti-estab lishment magic? That’s doubtful, because he and many of his acolytes are the establishment.Maybethistime he can get Biden-as-asocialist to stick. Biden is hardly the poster child of anything too hard left. And even his more progressive, Sandersesque agenda items have been torn apart in Congress — with little argument from Biden himself. The late President Lyn don Johnson is rolling in his grave at how passive-aggressive Biden is with the
Who and what would Trump run against in 2024?
How about Biden as a failed presi dent? Inflation has skyrocketed, but so has job growth. The economy screams recession, but if it’s out there, no one has quite found it.
Former President Trump will have to run against President Biden, and run ning against an incumbent president ain’t easy: Only 10 presidents in Ameri can history have lost re-election — and one of them was Trump.

opinions
Outside of former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, Biden was the only candidate who never aligned with Sanders. So, in nomi nating Biden, Democrats went against Trump’s wish es.
But how will the former president present his message? Biden isn’t exactly a great president, but he’s not a failed one, either. If Trump gets past his legal troubles to make another run for the Oval Office, his only chance to come out on top could very well require changing his playbook completely.
both major parties for some time. That was what allowed him to blitz through a field of respected Republican politicians like former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush and Sen. Marco Rubio.
Trump apparently feared the idea of Clinton even considering the Ver mont senator as her run ning mate, calling Sanders “the only one I didn’t want her to pick” — perhaps aware of how much Sand ers could have disrupted Trump’s campaign mes sage.But everything changed in 2020. How could Trump run against the establish ment when he was now the establishment? So he tried a different approach. The entrenched elite wasn’t the boogeyman this time around; it was socialism. And as far as Trump and his supporters were concerned, “Democrat” and “socialist” were interchangeable terms.Trump was almost gleeful when Sand ers — a self-described “democratic socialist” — was winning the early pri maries in 2020. Trump strategist Michael Caputo even said that “the only thing better for Trump than Bernie getting screwed out of the nomination (is) if Bernie wins the nomination.”

That didn’t stop the then president from trying to link Biden with socialism anyway, but no one was buying it. At least not enough to swing the gener al election in Trump’s favor.

Answers may not be found, but at the right time and in the right place, the truth will find the person who is looking for them. And please don’t leave out Gen esis 1:27 and Isaiah 49. It’s my hope that Greenberg will be rewarded with the continued gifts in the goodness and kind ness that she has shown in her writing.
And Biden has been on a bit of a roll lately. Some key measures he has cham pioned, tackling inflation and the envi ronment, have been signed into law, and he just took out a key terrorist in the MiddleBidenEast.may have led a disastrous pullout from Afghanistan last year, but now he has finessed the war in Ukraine to make Russian dictator Vladimir Putin look like the monster he is without put ting a single pair of American boots on the ground there.
John O’Connell for his op-ed in the Sept. 1-7 issue, “Where has all the competence gone?” He precisely voiced my sentiments and, I’m sure, those of many Americans around us. It is indeed very sad that we are amazed when we witness something being done competently, on time and without fuss. It is even more distressing that the pros pects of any improvement are quite dim.

vs. Sanders, Democrats ultimately went a different route. The anti-Bernie route. The Joe Biden route.

ty’s nomination of Clinton for president, however, played right into Trump’s cam paign message: As the anti-establish ment candidate, who was a better repre sentation of the establishment — and the perfect villain — than Hillary Clinton?

Essentially, Trump was always running against “crooked” Hillary Clinton and the pre-Trump estab lishment — even when Clinton wasn’t in the race and the establishment was Trump’s own.
