This, down at the end of the editorial:

"Many hoped Trump would decide to become the president of all the people.
But Trump spent last week demonstrating that he wants to be president of the few.
By pardoning Arpaio, Trump made it clear that institutional racism is not just OK with him. It is a goal.
That should trouble every American who believes that our duty as a nation is to continue working on behalf of equal justice."


Well, alright then. The Arizona Republic just confirmed that trump ISN'T "our president." For those of us in the #NotMyPresident category (as I am, myself), this validates us. He's certainly not MY president. And he won't EVER be MY president. Mine's Hillary, the legitimate winner of the popular vote - with NO help from a hostile foreign power to let her cheat to win; and Barack Obama, who also, legitimately won the popular vote, TWICE - and no hostile foreign power stepped in FROM OUTSIDE to help him, either time. And, unfortunately, since they're both currently out of office, I actually don't have a president right now.

Awww... there they are!

I love those short little snub noses when they're that age! And those little paws. And those little tails...

Yawn... just another lie.

How many is it by now?
327,489,601,552? Or 327,489,601,553?

LOVE it! As my ever-astute husband just said -

responding to my "bring on the lawsuits, then!" quip:

"Maybe trump will pay all his legal costs."

Welcome to DU, mjvpi!

We have to laminate them together - figuratively speaking, of course.

I find that my heart is hardening against trump supporters, too. I look at him, knowing how vile, vulgar, and utterly out-of-his-mind he is, and then I look at them and think - "so you're okay with this, 'eh?" That question is immediately followed by another question: "so what does that say about YOU, then?" And the answer to that one is - "NOTHING very good. NOTHING very good, at ALL."

About calimary

Female. Retired. Wife-Mom-Grandma. Approx. 30 years in broadcasting, at least 20 of those in news biz. Taurus. Loves chocolate - preferably without nuts or cocoanut. Animal lover. Rock-hound from pre-school age. Proud Democrat for life. Ardent environmentalist and pro-choicer. Hoping to use my skills set for the greater good. Still married to the same guy for 40+ years. Probably because he's a proud Democrat, too. Penmanship absolutely stinks, so I'm glad I'm a fast typist! I will always love Hillary and she will always be my President.
