    He said, stand back and stand by. Wait until I need you. I misquoted above his statement.

    Joe Biden will not fire his best advisors like Trump who thinks that he knows everything better than anyone else. The smart person does not constantly interupt the other only the one who has an inferiority complex.

    The Olalos Ephraim (Klei Yokor) has a nice mashel based on the pasuk karmi shli lo nitorti, I did not protect my own vineyard which combines the sukkah and lulav. A king sends his servants overseas to tend a big vineyard. As he realizes that it takes a long time to see results, he also gives them some small vineyards to support themselves. The servants recognizing that they need teamwork to see results from the big vineyard, give up the working on it completely by caring only for the small vineyards which is only temporary whereas the big vineyard could last lifetimes with crop rotation. The big vineyard is being destroyed. The king gives out two edicts to rectify this. One, once a year, they have to leave their home and live in the big vineyard to see its destruction and two, giving them a symbol to remember the importance of teamwork.
    The nimshal, the big vineyard is the next world and the little vineyard is this world. Once in the beginning of the year we are reminded the importance to work for the next world through doing mitzvas by leaving our home and entering the sukkah and we are given a symbollsm for teamwork through the lulav which is required in their performance. This also explains why we make a bracha on the lulav in the sukkah.

    If you remove the arava from the lulav, eventually you will need to knock it off.

    1, You can be ashamed of yourself. My writing this, if someone gets sick because of you, you violate the prohibitiion of לא תעמוד על דם רעך don’t be responsible for the blood of your fellow man. Even a safek pekuach nefesh is dacheh shabbos and Yom Kippur. On this it says סיג לחכמה שתיקה silence is golden. You are smarter than all doctors. You contribute to a Chilul Hashem.

    More of the above Open Letter:

    Moral degradation infects a broad swath of the American political spectrum. In the camps of both liberals and conservatives, many political players are on a hyper-partisan quest for victory at all costs.

    Good character and benevolent governance are devalued, contrition is seen as weakness and humility is confused with humiliation. Many politicians and media figures revel in dividing rather than uniting the citizens of our country. Others legitimize conspiracy theories. None of this is good for America, and certainly not for us Jews.

    Shameless dissembling and personal indecency acted out in public before the entire country are, in the end, no less morally corrosive than the embrace of abortion-on-demand or the normalization of same-gender relationships. The integrity and impact of what we convey to our children and students about kedusha, tzni’us, emes, kavod habriyos and middos tovos are rendered hollow when contradicted by our admiration for, or even absence of revulsion at, politicians and media figures whose words and deeds stand opposed to what we Jews are called upon to embrace and exemplify.

    These are not new problems. But the challenge seems to grow worse with time. If we don’t stop to seriously consider the negative impact of our community’s unhealthy relationship with the current political style, we risk further erosion of our ability to live lives dedicated to truly Jewish ideals.

    From the Open Letter of Rav Shafran of the Aguda:

    We must ensure that Israel is not used as a political weapon.

    We must oppose efforts to turn support for Israel from a broad consensus into a wedge issue. Although we may rightly be concerned about trends regarding Israel in some corners, indicting an entire party as anti-Israel is not only inaccurate but has the potential of becoming a self-fulfilling prophecy. Nor should any party’s strong support for Israel become a justification to blindly support its politicians in every other matter. We should advocate for Israel’s security and other needs without painting ourselves into a partisan corner.

    We should vote as Jews, not partisans.

    The mishnah in Erachin (7,1) says that we don’t wait to kill the mother until the child is born. Explains Rashi that the mother and child is one entity. The Chezkuni Shmos (21,22) says that from here we see that a child is considered a new creation at birth when it comes outside otherwise only money is paid.

    By the Jews, life begins at birth, rov before that will not live, so it is not considered murder, whereas by the goyim, we don’t go after rov as tbe minority do live, so it is considered murder.

    We say in the in the Sanei Tokef that Rosh Hashanah we are written and Yom Kippur stamped, asks the Meharam Shik, how is this possible as the tsadikim and rashoim are written and stamped imeadiately and the in- between are left hung until Yom Kippur? I think it is talking about the in-between who are written in their book as a temporary scratch pad which is not stamped but moved to their respective books, life or vice versa written and stamped on Yom Kippur or Hoshanah Rabah.

    Nomesorah, The Chasan Sofer explains on the Hagadah, that the chacham, acts in clever manner not being called a tzadik, uses an expression eschem to exclude himself to get the rasha to reveal himself. When the rasha sees that chacham excludes himself, he presumes that he is a rasha, so he says I am also a rasha. Trump by not standing up against the white supramicist makes them think that he is also a white supramicist thereby providing strength and encouraging them.

    The reason I wiil vote for Biden because Trump is dangerous who things he knows everything better than anyone else by firing all his best advisors. He destroyed the economy by letting the virus run rampant. He increased the deficit through the tax cuts which benefited only the rich. He encourages the rise of anti-semitism by supporting white supremacist.

    Based on doctor, you feed a person a little and see how they react whether he says I need more. If he says no, you feed him another small amount in the specified time. If he says yes, you feed him normally.

    The doctor as paskened in SA above recognizes if the person is even at a safek life and death status and I don’t see anywhere a Rav required to make the decision. Please someone point out a posek (gadol) who requires that. Chronic is a long duration illness so it needs a halachic decision whether one can fast.
