A very disturbing story

The Trump campaign continues--on its dark, disturbing path. 

From Yahoo Politics: "Donald Trump refuses to disavow support from former KKK grand wizard David Duke, then does."

Essay about Donald Trump, in The New York Times

The Times essay, by conservative columnist Peter Wehner, is titled  "Why I Will Never Vote for Donald Trump."

As he writes, below: "Mr. Trump’s virulent combination of ignorance, emotional instability, demagogy, solipsism and vindictiveness would do more than result in a failed presidency; it could very well lead to national catastrophe. The prospect of Donald Trump as commander in chief should send a chill down the spine of every American."

Pope Francis

Am deeply moved, watching Pope Francis on television--seeing the beneficence, the cheerfulness, the kindheartedness he extends.  His visit is remarkable, and inspiring.
