A Political Post

I don't tend to comment publically on politics very much. There are a number of reasons for that having to do with my job and my general philosophy about people. However, those reasons aren't very important right now.

 We, all of us, have allowed a man to be elected into our highest office who worships at the alter of ignorance to such a degree that he doesn't even know what the powers of his office are. This is a man who was elected despite his documented crimes against women. This is a man who was elected despite his obvious collusion with a foreign national power who has had a dubious relationship with our country and national interests for decades. He was elected on the strength of petulant tweets and empty promises. He got elected because we allowed our disillusionment with our political system to fool us into grand gestures like protest voting instead of working day by day to change it. We've been childish and we have elected a child to govern us.

It's time to step up people. This has happened before. Did you know that Hitler never won the popular vote in Berlin. The Nazi party only had 40% of the national vote in 1932. Yet in 1933, one of Hitler's first acts was to toss out the German constitution. Now we have a president who lost the popular vote by 3 million votes. We have a president whose first acts have been to trample on our constitution by violating one of our founding principles that anyone, irregardless of national origin or religious background, can become an American.

We need our elected officials to stand up to this playground bully and enforce the rights guaranteed by our Constitution and Bill of Rights. We need to support our  congressmen and senators and the state and national level by getting involved. We the people must mobilize. Get out there and tell your reps what you want to see happen. And if they don't listen vote them out when the time comes. I don't care what party you subscribe to, get out there. If we want to keep our voice, if we want to shout down Trumps tyranny, then we must speak out as loudly as we can.

Impeach the tyrant elect.
