We are stressed, depressed & frustrated. It doesn't help when those ignorant of the process constantly yell "DO SOMETHING!" In this country a president can only be removed by Congress, an election or death. IF we can vote to regain power in Congress he will be removed. Support us. Stop blaming us.

This Read is the Truth. Trump like many Republicans in Congress are Racists. It is telling that out of 50 Republican Senators only one is Black. They are the Party that Lost the Civil War and their right to own Black Slaves. Thank God America moved on, however Republicans never did. 😡😡👏👍🇺🇸😎
