DT and his HATE filled agenda offends me on every level imaginable. He disgusted me with his behavior during his life as a celebrity, his behavior during his campaign, and his behavior now is anything but Presidential (no matter what Con-Artist Conway has to say about it). DT exemplifies all the qualities of a bully with no moral compass and the compassion of a toad–scratch than–that is an insult to all toads out there.
DT and his administration are a threat to Democracy. Breitbart Bannon admitted the plan is the deconstruction of government at this weeks CPAC. What do you think that mean, folks? Coupled with the obvious war on truth and the First Amendment–I think we are pretty much screwed here.
Some crazy things happening in the DT Fascist State this week-things I never thought I would see in my lifetime:
1) An Underground Railroad for Immigrants fleeing the tyranny of DT and his admin–fleeing America because it is not a safe haven or the land of opportunity for them.

2) A 70 year old children’s book author detained by US and reduced to tears over the humiliation and poor treatment she received while traveling. Here is what she had to say:
“She told the Australian Broadcasting Corporation she was questioned by border agents for two hours in front of a room full of people – an experience that left her feeling like she had been physically assaulted.
“I have never in my life been spoken to with such insolence, treated with such disdain, with so many insults and with so much gratuitous impoliteness,” Fox said.
“I felt like I had been physically assaulted which is why, when I got to my hotel room, I completely collapsed and sobbed like a baby, and I’m 70 years old.”

3) A UK teacher with a British passport detained, removed from plane and humiliated when traveling with his students.
Here is what he had to say:
“As I was making my way out of the plane I looked back at the kids to tell them everything was going to be okay. The look I got off the kids, they were shocked, they couldn’t believe what was happening. This is when I felt like I was a criminal,” Juhel Miah, a math teacher at Llangatwg Comprehensive School in Wales told CNN.

4) Continued saga of Russian interference in US election and DT administration. New evidenced shows White House Chief of Staff Preibus asked the FBI to publicly refute that DT and his admin had anything to do with Russia–the FBI refused.

5) DT Travel Ban from 7 countries is NOT support by US Intelligence (no surprise but still pitiful).

6) I will end with this heinous crime against an Indian engineer who was killed in a hate crime in Kansas this week. The man charged with the murder was in the restaurant at the bar, supposedly dropping racial slurs which were overheard by waitstaff when he left the restaurant came back with a gun and shot 2 people after yelling, “Get out of my country”. An American who had been hiding under a table when the gun shorts started, thought the gun magazine was empty, charged him and was shot too. One man died, the Indian engineer. He left behind a wife, family back in India and relatives here in the US. I cannot imagine how his family feels and I am so very sorry.

These were not all the awful things that happened this week; there were more but I do not have the time or energy to lay them all out.
I am ashamed. This is not the America I know and love. I am 46 years old and I NEVER thought I would see things like this happen in America in my lifetime. I never imagined it was possible to elect a leader without experience, without good character, without a moral compass, without compassion and a basic human decency. Shame on us.
