More than once I have stated here, and at Facebook, that if you're still supporting Trump (which means you're also supporting a guy I believe to be a Nazi. His name is Elon Musk), then you should stop visiting my FB page AND my blog. I was raised to believe Nazis were bad. I still believe that. It makes me beyond uncomfortable seeing a man closely aligned with the president of this country slinging his arm enthusiastically into a nazi salute, and if there are people in my life who think nazi salutes are "okay," I don't want them in my life another minute.
IF you choose to support those monsters you are not someone I can respect.
Keep visiting and I promise you're going to see something that will upset you.
No doubt, my opinions will upset you.
But bless your hearts. Many of you cannot handle the facts. Facts. Ugly, but true. They realllly seem to upset trump supporters.
After I originally made my stance known regarding trump and his minions, there were some folks who paid attention and stopped visiting my social media accounts. And there were some FB "friends" I stopped following, or unfriended, and a few I blocked.
All good.
Disagreements about things are to be expected. Things we do like to do vs. things we don't like to do. Donald loves to hike and camp. I do not. We order different pizza toppings. He likes TV. Me, not so much. I read constantly. Him, not as much. And yet, here we are. 40 years together and still loving, liking, and respecting one another. Imagine that.
We are each owners of strong opinions. Do they occasionally clash? Pfft . . . oh yeah.
So, we argue sometimes.
So??
So . . .
here we are. 40 years together and still loving, liking, and respecting one another.
When someone tells me they don't argue with their spouse i feel two things. One is that they must be lying. Two is that one of those people in that particular relationship is nothing more than a doormat.
If Don and I were to have different viewpoints when it comes to our convictions and the most basic values - such as Donald Felon Trump, I'm not sure we'd make it.
Morals.
It's about morals.
It's not politics.
It's MORALS
Anyone thinking it is simply politics and that I don't particularly want them in my life because of my political beliefs just doesn't get it.
And some of those people would dare to say to me, "you don't understand." Ohhh, do not do that. Do NOT . . .
I understand.
< Oh, those condescending trumpers . . . >
I understand.
I understand that this administration is comprised of people who are the worst of us.
Otherwise, we wouldn't be experiencing an unprecedented outbreak of measles (from which, so far, two people have died - one child, one adult). Y'all? Vaccines are not an instrument of The Devil. They keep people, especially children, alive. But, oh, I forgot! This is SCIENCE. Trumpers don't really believe in science . . . not that science cares . . . UPDATE here
While we're on the subject of science, let's mention climate change - it's real too. Check in to see what NASA thinks - https://science.nasa.gov/climate-change/evidence/
While we even sill have a NASA.
We wouldn't have this shamefulness: "Guided by billionaire Elon Musk and his Department Of Government Efficiency aides, the Trump administration has already laid off tens of thousands of federal employees across the country including the National Park Service, U.S. Department of Agriculture, Veterans Affairs, Internal Revenue Service, and the National Institutes of Health." AND now, The Dept of Education can be added to this list. These federal employees are people. People who are doing service to this country. People who have rent or mortgages to pay. Families. People who have bills to pay, food to buy. PEOPLE
Or THIS: Trump pulls more than $1 billion in federal spending that gives schools and food banks money to buy food from local farms and ranchers. Proving once again that in Trump's America, life begins at conception and ends at birth.
We wouldn't be facing the loss of our forests. This loss (UNREGULATED ) is not a small thing. What do you want to see there instead of trees?? Mansions? High rise buildings (when so many are sitting empty?) Casinos (we already know how that went).
Social Security. If you're not worried about Social Security, you haven't been paying attention. Or, you're one of he lucky few who don't have to rely on Social Security. Lucky you. You'll get along fine. Just avert your eyes when passing the newly homeless.
When a friend or relative can no longer join you for dinner out on Saturday night because they don't have the money, give a quick little thought to people missing meals at home because they don't have the same level of income they had a month ago. Or are sitting in a cold house because they can't afford the heating, even though they've done okay in that regard in years past. Many years past.

Did no trump supporting person see or read about this?
From BBC -
US election: Full transcript of Donald Trump's obscene videotape
Excerpt:
Trump: "Yeah that's her with the gold. I better use some Tic Tacs just in case I start kissing her. You know I'm automatically attracted to beautiful... I just start kissing them. It's like a magnet. Just kiss. I don't even wait. And when you're a star they let you do it. You can do anything."
Bush: "Whatever you want."
Trump: "Grab them by the pussy. You can do anything."
- - - - - - - - - - - -
No trump supporter was embarrassed by the constant demeaning and denigration from him towards people he just didn't like? A grown man? The leader of this country?
Now, just because this is "old news," that doesn't make it "fake news."
And just because you're sick of hearing about it, doesn't make it less true.

- - - - - - - - - - - -
Oh my gosh, there's so much more. How 'bout this, it's pretty disgusting -
- - - - - - - - - - - -
Need more?
Here's some pretty scary stuff for you.
Revenge.
Trump loves revenge.
Here's one example out of many.
He's not crazy about the clients represented by a particular law firm. So. What's he do? Why what any US President would do, right? Pfft. Hardly. He signed yet another Excutive Order.
Here it is in a nutshell - "The executive order directed executive branch agencies to terminate contracts with Perkins Coie “to the extent permitted by law,” to limit the firm’s approximately 1,200 lawyers’ access to federal buildings and federal employees, and to end security clearances for employees at the firm. Government agencies are forbidden to hire any Perkins Coie employees, which includes paralegals, staff, IT, and others, without obtaining permission from the highest levels of government."
Want the whole ugly story? Here 'tis
If that doesn't scare you, there's no hope.
But oh, there's more . . . so much more. Do a little research. You probably won't find it on Fox, but there ARE other avenues.
- - - - - - - - - - - -
Okay. That's enough.
I'm getting sick to my stomach giving all this thought to a man hell bent on destroying all that is beautiful, and good, and decent in our country.
His supporters will continue to support him no matter what. I mean, they voted for a felon . . .
So.
Let me just end this by saying - if you're a trump supporter, please just go away.
And hug and smooch your loved ones
