Never though I would see this in the United States.

To me it looks like Trump's supporters have decided to eliminate people who have criticized or opposed him. I wonder how long it will be before they decide to burn a neighbors home or even kill him or her because they spoke ill of Trump. This may sound paranoid but think about it. Many of his supporters are as radical as the Islamic terrorists we are supposed to fear. The daily occurrence of harassment, threats and assaults by Trump supporters is escalating. Trump seems to encourage the worst in people. These people feel they have his blessing and he has given them the right to behave in a way that was denounced by civilized people long ago.

We the people

Every day I hear people blame this or that politician for the state of our country. In most instances they received what they voted for. People don't take a broad view of the ramifications of what they vote for. You know what I mean. Its the other guy they need to go after not me or mine. We need politicians who put the welfare of the country and all the people first not special interests or people with a vendetta against other folks. It is up to we the people to know and vote for what is best for all and hold our elected officials feet to the fire if they don't deliver.

Conservatives and mice.

This time of year mice move in to my storage buildings and I trap some every night. Now a mouse is not the smartest critter but not totally stupid either. It is just a case of what they want namely the bait is all they see not the trap. Conservatives are some what like mice if they want something that is all they see never the other dangers that will effect them. You have to give Trump and company credit they walk them right into a trap by dangling the bait and letting them charge right in. Now isn't it nice to not be a Republican or a mouse.
