They must wear this shame for the rest of time. Period. They dare to claim patriotism and love of country? What part exactly? Not the rule of law... Not the concept of progressive tax systems... Not fair trade... Not an actual repair of the immigration system... Nothing but ideological bullshit and culture war nonsense. I am sickened to my soul by them all.

These same asshats were appoplectic whenever President Obama signed an executive order - NONE of which were even in the same sport let alone same ballpark as anything Trump has done. They clutch the pearls and opine on the doom and ruin of the nation for a fucking tan suit...yet, illegal defiane of the courts, illegal deprtations, illegal arrests and movement of people without due process and they act as if this is the new normal and we are somehow crazy???

I have only one mission in life - to make sure that at least one voice remains in their fucking ear like a gnat in a quiet room - "YOU people are guilty of worse than anything you claimed to be 'the worst thing ever' because it was a minority in the oval office. You are racists, you are fascists, you are weak and you disgust me."
