What has happened to my once beloved country?
Here is a link to Krugman’s post today: Monsters
It starts out:
All this after they had control of the man who, from what I have read, was only trying to protect a woman from pepper spray being used by ICE agents.
The really sad part is that this is getting to be a common story. Trying to find accurate statistics about ICE and ICE deportations is almost a hopeless task. Whether you agree with deportations or not, I find it hard to believe anyone would approve of the tactics of this Fascist regime and the government agency, ICE, that seems to populated the worst of the worst. And the Trump Administration is defending them and cheering them on.
Are you still happy with your vote for Trump? Are you still happy with voting for Republicans enabling this madman strutting around the White House? Are you happy with government sponsored armed thugs in our streets? Are you happy with the mass abuse of people, who by the vast majority, were simply seeking a better life? Are you still happy with a President who has surrounded himself with the worst possible people? Are you still happy with a President that has pissed off just about everyone of our long term friends and allies, all the while sidling up to the worst dictators on the planet?
God save your soul.
My hope is that we will vote the monsters out in November. A bigger part of me is afraid we will not have the opportunity.
All of this for what? To stroke a madman’s ego… to bring on the Armageddon… To rid our country of brown people… All this so the rich get richer and the rest of us without benefits…
I have never felt so hopeless about the future of this country.
