This shit has been going on since this country began. Fucking assholes who think they are better than everyone else,aristocratic rich narcissitic pigs I dispise republicans.

If things really go fascist I know they'll outright kill and torment the poor and disabled. Cut the safety net to nothing. If trump is permitted to be made king.. I am doomed. I might as well kill myself before I am made to suffer. At least if this country becomes abusive I can make a final exit,because after what I have been through, I am not going through that shit again.
