In times of trouble, I do not want Donald Trump anywhere near.

My mother was sick at home for quite awhile before she died. She had attended her church for over 40 years. The minister of that church had never been to our home. When he showed up after she died while we were gathered there, my siblings had to restrain me. I went to the back of the house and refused to see him. He was not there for her while she was alive. An assistant minister had visited and we had talked on the phone. He and a family friend spoke at the funeral, at the funeral home.

Since my thought was to ask him if he was there to see if she left the church any money, I am grateful that I did not get near him. Whatever I said would have been disrespectful to my wonderful mother.

This is how I feel about Trump, he is there for show. He does not know the situation or appreciate it's impact. If I am in a place where there is a tragedy, if Trump showed up, I would refuse to be near him. Unlike my restraint at the time of my mother's death, everyone would know why I would not meet with him. EVERYONE.

Every effing thing he touches turns to shit. Instead of the man with the "golden touch" he's the a-hole with the
shitty touch".
