I was at the grocery store earlier, waiting on my laundry to dry next door. A black man and I stood at the TV watching some of today’s outrageous events unfold in D.C. He turned to walked away and simply said, “Sad.”
Yes it is. Among other things, it is deeply sad that our country has been reduced to this, all for a deranged white nationalist sociopath who launched and continuously fueled a massive moral and intellectual regression. The blame for all of this chaos belongs entirely to the Trumps. It is who they are. Violation is their legacy.
He didn’t make America great. He made it a disgrace. And every person who resides in this country will be forced to live with the side effects of that fact, coming from both inside and outside of our borders, for a very long time.
I am a minority opposing the Trump administration in my state, and let me be very clear, I stand proudly and without hesitation in that decision. I don’t know what’s going to happen next, and I may not be worth much in the world’s shallow eyes, but my integrity is sound. I will die on this hill knowing that I was on the correct side of history.
