Awaiting

Trump has no intention of turning down the political violence; he thrives on the chaos and the opportunity to avoid his deficits in governing. Trump understands the values of a divided nation and will continue to tear this nation apart. He has also militarized his followers into examples of the ‘Brown Shirts’ and has made parts of his administration into a form of the Gestapo.

With permission from the entire Republican cadre of politicians, with the assistance of the majority of so-called Justices within the Supreme Court, the case of bleeding our nation dry of democracy is in Trump’s favor, and the gutting of this nation’s moral fiber is life-threatening.

As I write this, my gut aches, and I must wonder if there is a chance to stop this mass murder of freedoms, liberties, and justice, or are we all just victims awaiting our turn to become “THE OTHER?”
