Trump: We have to get this country open even though it may effect people badly.

Things that affect me badly.

. Stubbing my toe. It hurts.
. Migraines. Unbearable, yet they go away.
. Misplacing my keys when I have an appointment. Aggravating.
. Stress. Welp...there is that.
. Trumps election. $%^&*&Y^T%R$%R^&*!!!!!!!!

However, death, yours or a loved one, be they family or friend does not affect me badly. It is a catastrophic event that will change your life forever. The loss is a devastating lifetime event to all friends and family.

He doesn't give one damn about any of us. Fact.

Republicans are thugs. I would trust my life to a convicted murderer in a SUPERMAX facility before I would the average Republican.

All the multi billionaires, how much have they contributed to people who are out of work and struggling to get their bills paid? How many banks have said, "We will delay your mortgage payments until this is over with and you are back on your feet, and we will tack those payments on the end with no interest or penalty.

Why does a person need 186 Billion dollars? 50 billion? Why do the Waltons refuse to pay their employees a living wage? Why do Amazon workers toil in sweatshop conditions? The Top ten richest people of America own 500 BILLION dollars collectively. Think what they could do for America if they gave away just half of their money. But no. All they do is hand it over to a "foundation" and the money never reaches to pocket books of people who can't even live from paycheck to pay check. THEY get the tax breaks. We do not. They refuse to pay living wages to their workers. And because of decades of that policy the problem has come to a head and those who could fix it, won't because they are greedy .

And just about all of them are Republicans

...he likes & wants to do.
The rest is actually really hard work & constant scrutiny.
He wants the country open so he can back to his cult rallies & fellating suckers.

A Statesman is interested in the next generation, a politician only in the next election........

The person that said that was right on.......McCain was the last of the Statesmen.......just look at how the Current RepubliCONS despised him, most of all Trump..........

That took us years to see.

However we might see the devastation sooner. Reports say that the lungs looked like crushed glass in those that died...imagine what those lungs of the living will look like in a few years.

Not to mention, the correct word is "affect." Nevertheless, your point is well taken! Quite so.

Trump also could no more elect himself than Pol Pot, busy little man that he was, could murder nearly a quarter of Cambodia's 7 million people.

Trump's election is a product of a giant societal pathology developed over decades by the Republican and other RW leaders and those they serve. A catastrophic event, but a culmination at that point of many smaller.



Thank goodness for the messages of the midterms. If sovereignty of the people is felt in this next election, Democrats will at least get enough power to hobble them, and at best be able to put an end to this dreadful course to destruction and begin a new, liberal-dominated successor to the New Deal era.

I'm not being hyperbolic.

Here are the characteristics:

Glibness and Superficial Charm.
Manipulative and Conning. They never recognize the rights of others and see their self-serving behaviors as permissible
Grandiose Sense of Self
Pathological Lying
Lack of Remorse, Shame or Guilt
Shallow Emotions
Incapacity for Love
Need for Stimulation

So there you go......
