I am beyond despair.
The potus is throwing paper towel rolls into the crowd. And they are cheering him. No words for the sadness of this.
So, Mr. and Mrs. John Q. America, gun violence doesn't mean
anything to you? Think about going to the next concert, not in Vegas...maybe on the lawn of your town library...think about heading to the Mall to shop for Christmas...think about your kid's next ballgame or maybe being lucky enough to see the world series... Think about all the things you do in your daily life that you now may have to reevaluate because we have a gun lobby that has essentially circumscribed your life and the lives of your kids and your loved ones for the Almighty Dollar. Either the people of this country are like frogs in the simmering pot or they will wake up before we come to the boiling point.
Interesting....according to MSNBC, Kelly didn't brief Trump
about the shooting until this morning. I guess Trump had to get his beauty sleep.
Forget football, Mr. president, what's going on with
hurricane relief in the Texas Gulf Coast, Florida, Puerto Rico, health care, tax reform, immigration reform, infrastructure improvements and on and on and on.
What do you do all day other than piddle all over your Twitter account?
There is hope....
I was really beginning to despair that this country had really lost it moorings and its morals and that people have forgotten what the Constitution is all about. Then came the "jocks"....those muscle bound guys who we love to watch on Sunday afternoons and they gave this country and this vulgarian president a refresher course in Constitutional law. Unfortunately for all of us, this president has more in common with North Korea's "dear leader" that he has with any president who has preceded him. Many of the people I know follow sports more than they follow politics and they admire these guys who practice discipline and team work and win gracefully and lose gracefully. These people are taking notice and are comparing these accomplished, disciplined athletes with the fat ass, out of control Nero in the White House. I think this has woken up a portion of the population that has been hard to reach.
Where is your million dollars, Donald? Any word on this? N/t
Make sure everybody you know understands this:
the compassionate Mr. Trump, who loves the dreamers, could have just left DACA in place and proposed legislation to Congress replacing it. That is all he had to do. He didn't do it because his base wanted to screw these kids and their families. He had to throw some red meat to his base and he did. Trump loves the dreamers like he loves this country...not at all. And he loves his base like he loves the dreamers....they will reap what they have sown.
According to NYT, Trump may not understand what he just did to DACA.
"As late as one hour before the decision was to be announced, administration officials privately expressed concern that Mr. Trump might not fully grasp the details of the steps he was about to take, and when he discovered their full impact, would change his mind, according to a person familiar with their thinking who spoke on condition of anonymity without authorization to comment on it."
This is more than frightening.
