Bigger than tRump

America's problems are bigger than tRump. He is the ugly boil on our ass, the observable evidence of disease and imbalance within.

Changing this is a decades-long, generational project. I have a lot of confidence in young folks, but I wonder if they don't become more conservative as they age.

I suppose all we can do is whatever activism and reaching out we have time and energy for. Small-scale and large as we are able.

This is much bigger than 45. He is a symptom of a greater disease. The nasty pockmarked underbelly of
this nation is laden with deplorables. All we can do is outnumber them and shame them back into silence.

quick. Usually it takes a full Generation for Humans to get their act together. Until there is a change in Right Wing Hate Radio and TV,and that will only happen when people stop watching and listening to this garbage.
