My heart is breaking as the damage created by an undemocratic Republican Party under President Trump continues to destroy this country to the point of I do not recognize it anymore. A mere shell exists today of the America that was.
The evildoers will soon think nothing of removing opposition to the point of physical incarceration. The only way to defeat this plague on our freedoms is to insist and resist through intensive and extensive “no kings” events every weekend all over America until it’s loud and clear that the people have spoken.
I think many supporters could find a new and satisfying hobby in creating artful protest signs for neighbors, family, friends. Have the courage to place the signs on your front yard for easy distribution to the masses that care enough to speak up and make a difference. I recommend and vote for frogs as the rallying creature for our campaign at eradicating the evil that threatens to destroy us.
Be sure, too, to vote. Everyone. We must do so in an unstoppable landslide.
