''West Wing' is my escape from the Trump era. Its TV public servants know what the right thing is and they're on speaking terms with their better angels,' writes usatodayopinion columnist MelindaKCMO

where we keep children are. Late at night, I slip off to the America in which the president can keep a staff and is a man in constant communication with his conscience., in the 1999-2006 television show"The West Wing," where the commander in chief would rather step down during a personal crisis than risk even the temptation of putting his own interests ahead of ours.

Because, and Sheen should know, Donald Trump “is an actor. He’s an actor. Not a good one, because he has no sense of truth. His instinct is to bully and to be what it’s all about all the time — all the time. This administration, what the hell was their policy on anything? I hate to say this, but it is a show. It is a series. Every day is a new episode, and every day, it’s all about him, all the time.

“I grew up with Eisenhower; he didn’t even know he was a Republican” and might not have become one had the Democrats asked him to run first. “He was a general, a servant, a patriot, a fair-minded and decent man.”Conservatives voting Joe Biden over Donald Trump are patriots. Thanks for the inspiration.
