only right to bash them, it is our duty to do so. All who did not vote for Hillary, voted for Trump. And the Greens are spoilers who gave us United and much bad stuff. in 2000-consider those who died in Katrina...the Greens fingers drip with the blood of innocents ...screw them. Also they should change their name as they clearly threw the environment under the bus and have no environmental concerns...Fixing the destruction of our water supply, our great lakes and the pollution spewing into the air thanks to Trump will not be easy. We may not be able to fix the damage to our water supply via the pipelines. We have to try and that starts by driving the Green supported Right wing including Trump out of office, I doubt we will receive any help with this from the Greens and from what some have called the alt-left.By the way, I dislike that term because I don't think they are of the left...far from it.
