get the red out

17. You are not alone

May 2018

I worry that even if every crime Trump has committed is proven beyond reasonable doubt, that nothing will be done about it. I don't know if anything can touch him because there are only a handful of Rs that have even a shred of decency, and most of those are retiring. I hope I am wrong, I just can't see justice as possible right now.

I too am focusing on my own life right now, and helping a little with a congressional campaign. I set out my first real vegetable garden this spring, I hope Trump doesn't send people out to take everyone's backyard tomatoes to give to China though.
