It Wasn't Enough, Republicans ...

It wasn’t enough to put an immoral, lying con-man in the White House.

It wasn’t enough to sit there in silence as he denigrated our war heroes and our national icons.

It wasn’t enough to stand with him as he declared that he’d take Putin’s word over that of our own intelligence community.

It wasn’t enough to support him as he insulted our allies and praised our enemies.

It wasn’t enough to enable him as he put migrant children in cages.

It wasn’t enough to ignore his thousands of lies and his obvious stupidity.

It wasn’t enough to watch him break the law again and again, and to actually assist him in breaking it.

It wasn’t enough to let him overturn laws that protect the environment and our natural resources.

It wasn’t enough to stand idly by as he enriched himself at the taxpayers’ expense.

It wasn’t enough to cheer him on as he put inept cronies in positions of power.

It wasn’t enough to support him as he sowed division, encouraged racism, and incited violence

It wasn’t enough to ignore his inane ramblings, and the other obvious signs of his mental instability.

It wasn’t even enough to declare you’d never remove him from office after he tried to extort our ally, Ukraine, in order to cheat in the 2020 election.

No, apparently none of the above was enough for you. You just had to allow him to put our national security and our citizens in jeopardy by assassinating Soleimani.

We get the message, Republicans – loud and clear. You don’t give a flying fuck if our nation is literally destroyed from within, and now from beyond our shores.

The greatest threat to world peace is Donald Trump – and the greatest threat to the United States of America is the Republican party.

Despite your best efforts, our democracy will survive. Hopefully, your party of traitors won’t.

Money is all these fuckers think about! Hit em where it hurts as we have no choice. It has the byproduct of Trump and his arrogant kids growing a pair of eyes in the back of their head.

This fight is ugly, but may help to wake a few more people up.

Fuck these bastards! They start this shit. They should take the heat for it. Not me, you or our troops

Several notable, pulitzer prize winning authors, New York Times and Washington Post, and even Wall Street Journal columnist have warned us time and time again how bad this president really is. Everything they have written bout this man has played out to be true.
David Cay Johnston's book, "It worse than you think.." tells it all. He knows trump better than anyone. And yet, every time he opens his mouth, the media acts as if he's the most credible person on earth. Every time trump opens his mouth the first thing that comes to mind is "HE'S LYING!" He lies to the media, his administration lies to the media, hell his kids lie to the media--WHY--BECAUSE TRUMP TELLS THEM THEY HAVE NO REASON TO BE HONEST TO THE SO-CALLED EVIL MEDIA. We don't know what's going on, what is or is not the truth, everybody is in a state of confusion. When he does tell the truth how are we to believe him? He's like the boy who cried wolf. We were warned about this man and who he is. On election day, we must not forget, we must remember who and what this man is and the damage he has done to this country. If he's reelected, many people will die. He has blood on his hands now, he's tasted the blood of war and like other greedy men he'll want more. Will his kids join the military? No. Trump wouldn't let them join (well maybe eric). But he'll commit yours and mine.
