Massive Book Reader, Educator, Amateur Philosopher, Advocate for Freethinking and a Bit of Anarchy, Nemesis of the Dogmatic and Narrow Thinking, Independent but Definitely Not Trump
Trump wants his expensive ballroom so bad he sues to avoid providing food for the less fortunate. Granted, he claims it is being paid for by gazillionnaires, but they are as complicit as he. They could direct this money to help.

Welcome to America, where protesting illegal kidnappings without due process is an insurrection, but attacking the nation’s Capitol is not.

The problem with Trump is he doesn't know the difference between a "deal" and a "con." And, he doesn't care. No ethics...no morals.

I get bombarded every day by text messages and emails from democratic politicians soliciting. They act as if I should support them because they are "democrats." No, I really don't care what your party is. More interested in your values and what you see as important, outside party lines.

I bought a Tesla because it was fast like a rocket ship. But now every time I drive it, I feel like a rolling billboard for a man dismantling our government and hurting people. So Tesla, you’re fired!

New ride coming soon.

There is only one reason Trump pulled the security off Pompeo and Bolton…to put them in danger for “crossing him.” To send a message to anyone else who would oppose.

Both have active death threats from Iran.

All to intimidate.

This is the opposite of a real man of God. This is evil
