He's the President - There's nothing anyone can do...

If he wants to destroy our alliances around the world, there's nothing we can do.

If he wants to blatantly break the law, there is nothing we can do.

If he wants to order children to be taken from their parents, there is nothing we can do.

If he wishes to sell the White House to the highest bidder, there is nothing we can do.

If he wants to tear down the democracy that took 242 years to build, there is nothing we can do.

That is the futility within our political Parties.

One man is permitted to destroy everything.....because he is the president and nobody can do anything about it.

If he wants, he can blow up the world. There's nothing anyone can do.

A pretty sad state of affairs, if you ask me?

But, nobody asked me.

1. When someone says "There is nothing we can do", it's because there's nothing THAT person wants to do

Afraid of making waves

Afraid of really working hard

Afraid of realizing there is a government that is NOT on your side

3. And challenge the legitimacy of the Republican government too

A legitimate government wouldn't treat brown skinned people as a threat but go meh to white male shooters.

A legitimate government wouldn't partner up with the deranged alt/far right.

A legitimate government wouldn't treat healthcare like it was a game.
