Poisoning every thing it touches.

Trump,s measure of a person.

Our very smart president bragged about his apartment and how rich he is as his deplorable cheered him on in Minnesota 2 days ago. Well being rich or having a nice apartment or wearing an expensive suit does not make a person.
How one makes his wealth matter.
What one believes in matter.
How one treats others matter.
Having compassion and decency matter.

Mr. Trump drug lords and mafia bosses have more money than you, billions more, does that makes them good people?

United we can bring the Republicans down.


I say resist, make noise, organize, march and VOTE.
Every day fascists stay in power we lose. Every day we stay quite it makes it harder to resist the following day. we resisted imprisoning children loud and clear with one voice and we made a difference.
We should do the same for democracy.
We should shout loudly no more lies, no more divisions, and no more corruption. we will not tolerate dictatorship.
We need to rise to the occasion all the time for the love of country. These are dangerous times.
What we are facing is the most serious challenge to our Republic since the civil war.
Failure is not an option. History will not forgive us.

Drug Lords vs. Trump. Who is richer?

Our very very smart president last night bragged about his apartment and how rich he is as his deplorable cheered him on.
Well being rich or having a nice apartment or wearing an expensive suit does not make a person.
How one makes his wealth matter. What one believes in matter. How one treats others matter. Having compassion, decency matter.

The shocking truth about the Trump presidency.

When this nightmare is finally over a shocking truth will remain clearly evident. Our system of government was not designed
to deal with a corrupt, immoral executive branch when it is protected by the same party controlling the legislative branch.
Our checks and balances simply fall apart. So when our president opens a hotel or a coffee shop next to the WH. we stand there like deer in the headlights. Norms are sufficient as long as the leaders are willing to follow them. But like in Trump case
when they do not, they have not broken any laws. Even our courts can seem helpless at times.
Now that Trump has opened the door to disregarding norms and the constitution, What are we going to do when smarter more dangerous more eloquent leader without Trump's baggage comes knocking at the White House doors and believe me it will happen.
We need laws to protect us and our democracy.

A simple question .

If a person manage to become president
of this great republic for the sole purpose
of destroying it and all the ideals it
stands for I figured he could not do
more harm than what Trump is doing.
Which begs the question why is Trump
doing this?

What do you think of owning a new slogan.

Make America great again, DUMP TRUMP.

The difference between the killer of children Al Assad in Syria

and our leader who imprisons children is strikingly shrinking fast before our eyes and beyond comprehension.
It is a matter of a degree of unspeakable horror that no decent human being should embark upon.
make America great again?

Insanity as an official policy.

If you see something say something.
Ok then.
We see insanity. We see middle ages barbarism.
We recognize there is an immigration problem, but separating children from their parents is not the solution. Decent Americans from all walks of political persuasions are hitting back. Standing tall for what is right.
we do not need an apology 50 years from now for the treatment of these young children by a corrupt administration and shameful GOP.
yes, Yes, Yes we can all speak now in real time. This is a basic issue of minimum decency and ethical behavior befitting a superpower.
The man in the White House is continuing his wrecking ball destruction of our core principles and values and with it our standing in the world.
Is this making America great again?

Call it for what it is.

If you see something say something.
I am glad the 26 Jewish organizations and several churches
are saying it, it is immoral and against
the very basic ethical principles of
which we as nation will most likely issue an apology 50 years from now when it will be too late.
Time to take a stand.
We recognize there is an immigration problem, but
separating children from their parents is not the solution.
It is middle ages barbarism.
