Our Government (Page 3): I call them as I see them. I've never met David Duke either. He, like you, is a r****t. Your President just pardoned Joe Arpaio. Guess you would call that...

My grandkids are bright, good kids--they don't "sit around". Both their Mom and Dad have earned doctorate degrees; and are well aware of the value of research and critical thinking. They are dedicated parents.
But, with an unbalanced, incompetent in the White House; a lame, enabling legislative branch; and growing civil unrest; I have cause to worry about the future of this country for my grandchildren.

As well you should. Any fair minded American should be frightened to death.

Wow! I don't expect much of our current president, but that is a declaration that he supports r****m, and the abuse of authority. I'm an immigrant but I wouldn't expect any problems in Arpaio country. I'm white and at least sound educated. I doubt I would even be asked for proof of legality - I do carry it - but wow. This administration is so over, regardless of whether you align with republicans or democrats. The rule of law is now over.

Except for Native Americans we all are either immigrants or descendants of immigrants. The rule of law and the American creed welcoming all died when Trump took the oath of office. We haven't seen anything yet. When one party controls all branches of government there is no counterbalance. Pray my friends. Pray.

Absolutely agreed. As for praying, I'm not religious, but I hear what you are saying...

What I don't like is The Trump message: "Prey my friends. Prey!"

Pisses me off when I think of the thousands who showed up for the Obama e******n cycle and stayed home in November 2016. I'm not a Hillary fan by any stretch of the imagination. But Trump? Staggering.

Me neither. Trump didn't win so much as Hillary lost. Our politicians just seem out of touch with reality on both sides. Perhaps when they start doing a decent job, things will improve, but I'm not expecting that anytime soon. In the mean time I expect a lot of damage to be done, and I expect the Trump supporters to be the ones that are let down the most. How long until they realize that they have been sold a pup, and that dawg don't hunt?

Well I imagine the expectations of the Trump fans are extremely low and in all likelihood they will not be exceeded.

I told my wife when he was running that there was Hitler reincarnated running for office. I am waiting for his rabid followers to start wearing their brown shirts.They best remember that when Adolph was done using his brown shirted thugs what happened to them. Trump will be no different. As for Hillary she was just as bad a choice but for different reasons. I couldn't bring myself to v**e for either of them. What has our system descended to that we aŕe given such inadequate people to v**e for?
