Some personal thoughts about Trump's cruelty. [View all]
Forcibly separating a family....it's an awful, awful thing....a life-altering thing....for children to be alone facing frightening circumstances beyond their control or understanding. Imagine being a little child wondering who all these strangers are and whether or not you'll ever see your parents and siblings again. Many adults can't understand how this could have happened. Imagine the questions these children have.
It's obvious Donald Trump doesn't see these kids as human. Truth be told, they're probably a few rings down the ladder compared to the people he threw paper towels at in Puerto Rico. Suffering, traumatized people....and the president of the United States threw paper towels at them and didn't even bother to count how many of them died.
Then there was the disabled reporter Trump mocked.
Cruelty. He does it with a smile, with exaggerated hand gestures just to drive the point home. He does it with a lack of empathy so complete he seems sub-human, reckless, dangerous, someone you'd tell your kids to steer clear of.
I know about cruelty and how it hacks up optimism and makes kids tremble. We can not stay quiet about this. We must point to it, speak about it, say how abhorrent it is, say how we'll not tolerate
it.....and then act. Let's make certain these precious children learn about the power of love and compassion.
As for Donald Trump, his day is coming.
