I had no idea it would be this bad. I thought there would be push back, outrage, checks and balances, something to stop this evisceration of our democracy. We have seen a historic overthrow of our country in just under eight months. I cannot bear to think what another three plus years will bring. Every day is a new horror. He has followers who are prepared to carry forth his evil agenda when he is gone.
