It has been almost a year since Donald Trump took office and not a day has gone by without a new upheaval and new ways to shock us. His approval rating hovers right around the sewer pipe as we express our disgust at his latest hate filled statements. We are shocked. We are offended. We shake our heads and go back to whatever we were doing. Is my assessment of the situation correct? Sure it is.
Well, after a year of down hill maybe we need to rethink this little fiasco we are involved in. In order to not sound confrontational I will say "We elected a mad man to the white house and we need to do something about that." I want to go on record as saying I did NOT vote for that man, but by saying that I would appear condescending and that is not the point I want to make. But we have to think about this logically. He was voted into office. I was not worried because I know we have a system of checks and balances and the Senate and the House of Representatives should keep him in check. We elected those people on promises they made to us, so we should be safe, right? Uh oh. It ain't happening is it?
His cabinet is a joke. He has hired and fired more helpers than Walmart and all the retailers combined and still has people operating from positions of power that are incapable of tying their own shoes. Betsy DeVos is a prime example of what not to do to advance education. Schools are operating with ice cycles hanging in bathrooms and kids wearing coats in the class rooms, but thank God the private schools get their tax breaks. And speaking of tax breaks, I am so happy that they got that tax bill passed. How long did it take for Walmart to declare they were giving a $1000 bonus to employees while slamming the door shut on 63 Sam's clubs to idle how many employees? And they are raising the pay to $11. Holy Mother of God! That is just a few dollars more than I make on Social Security which does not stretch to cover my bills and there is only one of me.
What is it going to take to wake you people up anyway? Now here is the deal, Trump is in bed with the Republican controlled congress. Or they are in bed with him. Six of one and half a dozen of the other. Same thing. For some reason the word Republican seems to loose a legion of demons and we Democrats do not stand a chance. You want to know why? Because we are honest, we have feelings for the under dog, and we live in a polly anna world where right will always triumph. Sorry guys. The other side plays dirty. So here is what we have to do. We have to vote and get our friends to vote. And we have to vote Democrat. See we are so sure that good will triumph that we are setting here on the back of the wagon singing our song and the bandwagon is headed for one helluva cliff.
See the dipwad at the helm is spewing his filth and signing his executive orders and congress does nothing to stop him. Republican Congress. Luckily most of the shit he pulls can be undone by the court system, but it should not even be happening that way. The man is not fit to pull latrine duty let alone hold the highest office of the land, so if Congress won't stop him, we have to replace Congress. For now, stay on top of the news. Call your Senator and Representatives and tell them what you want. Vote in you local elections. If it says Republican after the name, that is not the one you want. Democrat. Bleeding heart Liberal Democrat.
Vote early and vote often!
