You in the US are not alone with Trump. In Canada our former

Prime Minister Harper played the anti muslim card during the election. His party talked of starting a hot line across the country where people could call to report barbaric cultural practices of their immigrant neighbours. That, and some other propaganda, agitated a few sicko to vandalize and abuse Muslims. The communities went out of their way to help Muslims after the fact. And it backfired big time on the Conservatives. Point is you are not alone on the crazy like a fox seemingly nutters politicians. It happens in every country every so often. Vibes.

But I am afraid nothing can make this better. We have an alarming group of loons running for president. It is what it is.

Where did those assholes come from? They are not only idiots, they are dumbing down the American people and that is treason! Those fuckers, pardon my English, should not be on TV, far less representing America! Gosh, they are their own worst enemies!

crisis in silence, taking no action and never speaking of it while his Press Sec responded to questions about AIDS with nasty jokes even as the death toll hit 40,000 Americans. Reagan was a monster who pandered to other monsters while the good Americans demonstrated against his genocide. Reagan was a multi-faceted bigot.

I am more than tired of the cult of St. Ronald. That man was the most divisive president that we have ever had (W. is a close second). He made greed a virtue and not only despised but--even worse--criminalized the poor while vastly inflating our already bloated military budget.

Oh dear, I am beginning to rant. I'll stop now.

Good day to everyone!
