Dad, thanks for making America home

Back in 2017, my father sent us the following text via our family iMessage:

“…Father’s Day is coming up. We’re all so busy. Instead of meeting now, I suggest we meet later, maybe in July when things are a little more settled. Meantime, do NOT give me any material gifts. I want ONLY a few sentences of heart-felt opinion from each of you about the current political situation and what you feel we should do. It does not have to be a long and it is not a dissertation but just your honest ‘gut’ feeling. Thanks!”
