This week, we saw another devastating storm hit the Texas coast line. Loss of lives, homes and business and everything from a simple hair dyer to cars were also lost. In the most case, people will be forced to move to a new city, new county or state. Some will take this for granted that it is not our problem because we live some distance away! But most of us feel the pain these people endured. I have yet donate money, but on Tuesday morning, I will do so. It won't be a lot, but it will help a mother buy her new born diapers, food, or what ever else anyone needs. My heart aches for the victims.
But what really has me mad! Yep, it is Trump. Arrogant, selfish and blowhard! Never mind all that has happened in 7 months and a disaster, he is going to push DACA to the fore front and pin the hopes of several immigrants off until the beginning of next week. Even the GOP are telling him to work to revamp the program and not stop it! I know he trying to keep his base and the naysayers from bashing his presidency. No, DACA is not perfect, but to deport several Americans, YES America, is just wrong!
I keep hearing the word "dreamers"! I believe we all are "dreamers" from our relatives who came to the US , because they were "dreamers", looking for better life. My family have several different ethnic backgrounds, I'm
part Irish, German, English, French and a bit of Italian. My point as I finish is, we all need to step back and see what keeps America Great all the time, it is we the people, a nation of one and damn proud of our nation.
Thank you for reading my venting threads!

A dream.
All should have their dreams.
