It is embarrassing. We have a White House run by a group of nasty 7th graders. And the worst part is that they have the republicans in the House and Senate behaving like weak little wannabees.

I dislike hyperbole and don’t think discussing it in those terms rises to that level. This is one of the more frightening aspects of the administration. The number of people not believing what’s in front of them and getting their news from fake news sites is frightening.

Every mention of it should be accompanied by attaching the word "fascism" to it.

We have become desensitized to Trump and his boorish ways. Time to call it what it is, loud and clear, with no fear of reprisal.
