I wake up every day hoping this was a nightmare. I’ve been calling, emailing, and Facebooking all kinds of politicians. I marched with the people of Philadelphia on January 21. My favorite sign was carried by a woman about my age that said “I thought I wouldn’t have to picket this sh*t again!” I know just how she felt. I am disappointed in this gang of thugs that have taken over our country. But I am also disappointed in the Democrats for their disorganization and shortsightedness that allowed this to happen. So I will continue to urge everyone I know to VOTE in every single election to change this country from the bottom up! And in between I’ll meditate, exercise, spend time with my family and loved ones and finally clean out my house!

Thank you. I feel less alone and am encouraged by your positive plan to proceed, with grace.
You are not alone! Proceeding definitely, especially with grace is the idea.
Gang of thugs that have taken over our country? I beg your pardon. I am thrilled someone is finally draining the swamp.
Trump is not draining the swamp–he IS the swamp!!!
THANK YOU FOR TELLING IT LIKE IT IS. I HAVE MARCHED MANY YEARS AGO. NEVER THOUGHT I WOULD BE DOING IT AGAIN.
