Over the last few weeks, we have seen displays of unfettered cruelty.
Cruelty isn’t power. It’s a primal display of weakness and ignorance.
Kindness and empathy are intelligence. We must never forget that.

This type of rhetoric is dangerously unhelpful.
If Trump and his gang aren't bound by the law nor the constitution, why are you? Currently the system of checks and balances is being destroyed at a speed that would have launched most countries into riots or open revolt. This is a constitutional crisis and your constitution isn't doing so well.
