After Texas floods claimed the lives of Americans including seven- and eight-year-old girls, discourse on social media illuminated something about the state of our nation. And it’s not heartening.
Some on the left jumped to politicize the tragedy. Commentators like Obama advisor David Axelrod linked the disaster to Trump administration government cuts.
The claims were false. The National Weather Service office had extra staff on duty and issued warnings well in advance. But that’s not the point.
The bodies of some of these little girls haven’t even been found yet. It’s indecent to play politics so quickly at a time like this. It’s a hallmark of a society that’s lost its way. But it’s what happens when your deity is political power, rather than God Himself.
Whatever our politics, let’s try to do better. Our fellow Americans, mourning their dead, deserve that much.
