I didn't forget you my friends

Believe me, there isn't a single day without me thinking of what you are undergoing

Things are not any better here. We have our own clowns, Salving and Johnson.

The only difference is we can slow them down a bit, otherwise they are just as calamitous as Trump.

I've also been quite busy in my private life. No big deal but a couple adjustments and some minor health concerns.

I'm still hanging in there and suffering through one day at a time...

But it's just terrific to have you back - we've missed you and your valuable viewpoint!

I got together from some of my oldest friends from my days at summer camp in Vermont - and they are equally horrified by Trump, including 2 French Canadian friends from Quebec, they follow everything that's been going on and despise Trump as much as my American friends do!

It's truly unbelievable!

Not a single day free from an embarrassment!

Republicans blow my mind!

How could anyone fail to see that Trump is nothing but a burden that will take them down ?

If any president, of any party and from any other time in history, behaved anything like Trump has - on a daily basis - they would have been removed so fast before they could embarrass us and undermine this government any further. Thomas Eagleton was removed from the 1972 Democratic ticket when it came to light that he'd undergone ECT (electroconvulsive therapy) for depression. Trump, on the other hand, is clearly certifiable!

Thank you.

I've never forgotten my DU friends. I kept following this mess and getting more disheartened day by day!

I have been very busy working and raising a 10 year old son. School has started here for the children. I try to keep busy so that I am not totally disheartened by the constant and awful words, deeds and actions of the Orange Tyrant.

I try to spend as much time outside in nature and doing fun activities with my child, as I possibly can, in order to stay sane in these troubling times.

DU is a real lifeline for me.

Take care, syringis! 🌸🌞🌳🌿💐

I was just thinking about you and wondering how you were doing recently. Someone in my office went on a trip to Belgium and Germany so that made me think of you. I am glad to see that you are alive and well and back on DU!

Cheers!

Thank you so much


I'm ashamed, I should have come in once in a while.

Yet I have been thinking of you and feeling for you each single day. I am well known as an anti-Trump. At last people realize how right I was.

We are just glad that you are back! I hope you have been ok. You know how we have been suffering under Trump, we just hope to get rid of him as soon as possible.

It's good to hear from you again, my friend!

I've been missing your thoughtful posts on DU from the EU, always kind and gentle to give us a break from our madness.

Hope your health is stable and life is treating you well.

We are fighting too. Comrade Putin attempts to do exactly the same to us here.

for asking. Yes, Putin has many helpers/tools across the globe and I know that you have your hands full too. I appreciate your perspective so much for that reason.
