"Don't worry....We survived Obama and you will survive Trump"

FB gem~


““Don’t worry....We survived Obama and you will survive Trump”

That was a commonly uttered catchphrase by Trump supporters when he got elected. I wonder if many of them believe that today. Here’s the thing: for hundreds of thousands of people, the reality is that they won’t survive. We cannot lay every death at his doorstep but as the death toll rises, his behavior becomes that much more erratic and irresponsible. When all this is said and done, remind a Trump supporter you know that this is what they voted for. This immature sociopath who has refused to acknowledge his own shortcomings even as the facts stare him square in the face.”~Sonny Perry~

was costing people their lives, destroying the economy, attacking good innocent people for doing their jobs, befriending traitors and being an arrogant asshole, they would all be cheering for his downfall. But since it is Trump in real life, he is their hero.

It's about the country surviving a president ... or even American democracy itself surviving. Obama left the country in pretty good shape; Trump, in his fourth year: it's looking bad.
