(430 posts)I know if you resign you'll have no worries about income, healtcare or lifeunder Trump.
But for those of us not as fortunate, losing you WILL be a death sentence for some. At least with you in office it will be a strong voice againt the tyranny of this current administration.
With you gone, we older Americans stand to lose (without a decent advocate) welfare, Medicare, Medicaid, Pensions, Social Security and maybe even our lives.
If you go, the odds are very good the Republicans will totally destroy anything we Americans have worked for, fought for or wished for. If you stay, while you can't guarantee that won't happen, we need to trust you to do your best, as you have done these last years to help out those of us who can't afford a life of even modest luxury.
I can probably cite 7 or 8 (questionable) reasons you could go. And I can't think of why, after being slurred by anonymous people AND your own party, you'd want to stay...but stay anyway...at least for us.
