Even at home, with the love of my life, I have to keep resetting myself so that I don't suck up the frustration and spit it out on him because he's close by.

I can SEE the general level of frustration on the side of the DEMs wanting facts and reality to morph into justice AS IS THE POINT of America, but then also SEEING the Reich Wing flapping around and dumping the facts in the trash and opposing justice at every opportunity.... it is like walking home and winding up on the moon.

So I get it. We are all on edge as never before because these offenses continue to stomp on Democracy at every turn and it seems like nothing is changing the crazy script that has been running along with tRump's mouth.

Living with my own tRumpie son and seeing his reactions and knowing I did the best I could and then he STILL drank the Koolaid breaks my heart and drives me up the wall. He listens to NOTHING I say and when I come here and get the same treatment, it's like WAIT, but these are MY DEMs. WTF?
