Agree with the above, but I would call instead of email. Calls come through more genuine for some reason and allows the person on the other side to hear you being honest.

I was supportive of Lori when this virus first started but her actions since have dwindled my support of her.

I know everything doesn’t fall on her shoulder but things haven’t been great as of late. Hopefully they figure out something soon.
