Our so called pResident has brought this country down, so low, lower than I ever have seen in my adult life. In his mind, money is more valuable than a man's life. A journalist's life.
He sows evil wherever he goes. He has no soul. He backs authoritarian people, he backs people who torture, he bashes our press, our rights, he mocks rape victims, disabled people, he has no soul.
If we remember, the planes that flew into the Twin Towers in New York were piloted by Saudi Arabians. Osama Bin Ladin's beliefs and life were with the Saudi Arabians. Yet, we are "friendly" with them still? Our so called pResident likes them? Believes THEM? Over our own intelligence community?
He loves Putin, Kim Jung Un, MBS? Our pResident is a sick man. He truly is. He truly IS a baby when he calls grown women names, as a 3 year old would do. Women that HE actually had affairs with! And when he calls people racial slurs, in all this he proves he has no soul. He projects his OWN insecurities when he does this and we all know it. My Lord, what did his parents do to him when he was a child that made him this way?
He backs his "base" of ignorant, white supremists? When they run down and kill a woman who was peacefully protesting? He does NOT back the majority of our country and its people. He is not serving the whole of the country. He is only serving the few and serving the evil leaders that only HE can relate to.
And I am sickened. The Republicans have done nothing but enable this man. They have done nothing but serve their own self interests and their pocketbooks. And they have screwed the majority of the country's people. Are they afraid of him, this so called pResident of ours? Or are they truly just like him?
I can hardly speak to or look a Republican in the eye because they sicken me. It used to not be that way, but that's how I feel now. And I have only felt this way since this so called pResident came into "power".
Well, he has no power over us. WE have the power to rid him from his position, to rid his enablers from THEIR positions and to bring our country back to the country we truly are. Please vote. Please vote and vote these evil people out! I, for one, am ready to go back to normalcy in our lives. I am ready for our country to have leaders with a capacity for caring and leaders who actually have a soul.

(33,321 posts)I am ready for a country in which once again I have the luxury of worrying about the emerald ash borer or the plight of honeybees. It shouldn't be too much to ask for our government to function in the best interests of the nation. It shouldn't be too much to ask for our press to report deviations from that norm, instead of being an amplifier for deviants.

(51,584 posts)The past two days have made me go very dark. It is beyond anger and beyond hate. There are no words for it. I have never felt like this about my country before and I despised Reagun and the Bushes and those who supported them. This is different, very different. Our country elected a murderer. He could shoot someone on 5th Ave and get reelected tomorrow. He and his enablers are beyond sick and dangerous. I wonder what the CIA will do if he has to be stopped?

(100,063 posts)Putin is spearheading a global campaign of hate and fascism, turning democracy on its' ear and knocking down country after country by electing ultra far right leaders who border on being full blown dictators. I mean really we need to stand up to this monster before it's too late and I'm afraid it might be.
