(658 posts)...people need hope.
These are not normal times. We are witnessing the country being taken over by not only the Russians, but by the fundamentalists, white-supremacists, neo-nazis and Goldman Sachs. Many of us are stressed and in a state of dismay over how much Trump is getting away with. We recognize that our democracy can be lost very easily and we're up against the clock given the damage that Trump, his administration and the republicans are doing each and every day.
We're not children and you are correct - we don't need to be told the obvious. So, please, stop criticizing and over-analyzing the needs of others. Let us speculate and hope. Let us come to our own conclusions. If L&M turn out to be charlatans, we'll have to deal with it. But for now, I like that little bit of hope I feel when Claude's tweet pops up in my feed - like these:

Because of these two tweets, I may fall asleep tonight not tossing and turning in fear for the future of this country and planet, but instead to counting indictments in my head.
