embarrassing that so many of the people who are counted among our leaders have been so frightened and intimidated by Donald Trump that they have walked away from all that their party claimed to stand for and abandoned even the pretense of decency, honesty or patriotism.
These people have no shame, but I am ashamed for them and of them. If these were truly representative of America, our nation would be doomed to a swift demise. But, they are not .
They are loud and they are outrageous in a way that often dominated the news cycle, but most of those who toil and love and hope in this nation find them disgusting and their views repugnant. They are no longer "us". They have chosen to follow charlatans and liars down rabbit holes that are both ludicrous and dangerous.
We are,quite clearly, better than they are because we choose love over hate and tolerance over bigotry.
We will win this struggle. Carry on.

OK
Good plan
