I sometimes find it a bit worrisome [View all]

That some people are fixated on Donald Trump, as if he is the sole reason for all American ills and that removing him will return us to some Utopian life (that never existed anyway). The real threat are those who elected him and those who support him i.e.: Conservatives/Republicans. THEY are the real threat. They are the reason we are dealing with a complete lack of social empathy. They are the reason that corporatism has become a societal model instead of just a business one. Please remember that the GOP and their mentality are responsible for where we are today, and to even remotely think that it is all down to one person is a scary prospect. PLEASE do not forget that it was that party who is being repeatedly shown to be the evil in our midst... not just one bloated rich guy.
