In reply to the discussion: Magnificent rant from David Rothkopf says it all. [View all]llmart
(15,536 posts)56. One of the most inspiring things I've read in a long time.
So inspiring that I've printed it out and posted it next to my desk. I have to keep reminding myself not to fall into that "Fog of Trump" because sometimes I can feel it coming on.
We all have to do whatever we can, as little as it may seem at the time, we still have to do it. There is strength in numbers and I truly want to believe that there are many, many more of us then there are of them. It's not just Trump. We have to burn the GOP down to the ground and start over.
