Every Day Is Just So Mortifying W/No Escape. Hard To Control The God Damned Rage.

You cannot seem to escape this shit storm. Even the mention of Trump or the word Republican causes rage. It feels worse with each passing day and are not even near the end of year one. Even the voice of the ORANGE PIG makes you want to pound your head against the wall.

It is like being in a straight jacket in a room with someone screeching the chalk across an old blackboard. Even better it is like the scene in "Agent Orange" where your eyes are being held open and you are being forced to watch terrible things.

What makes it particularly hard is how badly Hillary was treated by the media during the election with all the accusations. Now Trump is doing ALL OF IT ON STEROIDS. And the media is trying like hell to normalize this fucking bastard and his illegitimate family.

If we have states like California and New York to open voting to immigrants no matter how long they've been here or level of documentation, then we can easily start tipping the scales our way, particularly in the House and the state houses. We need the courts to reverse any orders Trump makes or the GOP Congress passes, then we need to flood Congress with progressives in 2018 to nullify anything Trump does. In 2020 we can then elect Kamala Harris and finally rid ourselves of the scourge of Republican terrorism.

Everyone has something that makes them unwind and relaxes them. For a friend of mine, it is adult coloring books (G rated). For me, it is knitting. In my case, I've been a part of knitting the Resistance by manufacturing pussyhats.
