Jimmy—sorry for the rant. I’ve read the kind of crap some people are spouting for some time now. I’ve said to myself—let it go. You will never change their minds. Live and let live. But this isn’t about politics. It’s so much more. So I went off. Like I say —sorry. I know I will change no one’s mind. I guess I did it just as a way of letting off steam and maybe more importantly to define myself, to say this is me and my truth. I don’t listen to MSNBC. But a man who would put children in cages where they remain today(please no false equivalencies to Obama) or talk about his ratings when people are dying or who makes governors kowtow to him (and I heard with my own ears the governor of Michigan say supplies were being held up by the the White House because of he felt slighted by her)that man is way beneath contempt. And those who excuse him (“sure he says dumb stuff” etc) will have to answer for their craven forgiveness in the face of overwhelming evidence of his irredeemable, immoral behavior.
Jimmy-I won’t bring this up again. Sorry again for stirring you or anyone else up.
You have your rights to believe what you want, and for the most part to share those views here.
as far as the gov of michigan, is she being truthful? Its been documented that those in opposition will make extreme comments to discredit the other party/politician. I dont really trust either of them, but in a time of national crisis, is it really likely that any president past or present would be that petty when it involves American lives? I put hillary only slightly above snake shit and I dont think she would even be that bitter on a grand scale like denying aid to an entire state (especially in an election year) however I think both parties would like you to believe that the other team is doing exactly that (especially in an election year)
as far as kids in cages... lets have that conversation at a calmer time.
I dont forgive him for his dumbassery, but at the same time I weight his words against his actions as president, and IMO he is doing a much better job than I expected when he was elected, despite him being an embarrassment in terms of knowing what to say and when.
I have taken a big step back from most of this shit, because I dont have the stomach for either side, but this health crisis is in my face and I am reading everything, double and triple checking about everything I can, I have been one of those that had people talking behind my back a month ago because I was calling for more precautions and I know that a certain cheeto colored guy in DC was saying the same things...honestly what really convinced me that this shit was for real, was when Trump himself cancelled campaign events to try and keep his supporters safe.... when an ego as big as his, that needs to be fed like his does, cancels events designed to feed him like a HS football team at a buffet, that told me that I was on the right side of this issue.
