Gifts of service

I am inspired by those who speak of the dead over those of the living who lead us in Washington.

Our examples are Aretha Franklin compared to Donald Trump. John McCain compared to Mitch McConnell, Paul Ryan and Mike Pence. Aretha knew her gifts and found a place to use them for all people, yet Donald knowing his gifts, chooses to serve himself. John knew his loyalties were to America and her people, yet Mitch, Paul and Mike, all party leaders choose to serve the rich and an ethical president.
