OPINION: The kinds of leaders we need...and the kinds we don't

I think that Professors Krugman and Harari hit this right on the nail-head.

The kinds of strong leaders we actually need are in place in multiple nations, several US states. Macron, Merkel, Ardern, Trudeau and others at the national level. In the US states: Newsom, Whitmer, Cuomo, Hogan, Inslee, Polis, and more. (Those are incomplete lists, and I beg forgiveness for that.)

I'm leery of Polis's decision to reopen things starting Monday. Though I appreciate the gradualism, I think it's too early.

I'd like to nominate Daniel Andrews, premier of Victoria, AU, to your list. He's been fantastic.
