(11,560 posts)This period, the Trump era, will go down as one of the most lawless periods of unqualified hacks screwing the country, in its history.
This decade has been one of unmitigated embarrassment. Our country has become a seething pit of selfish, cruel, racist, xenophobic, misogynistic bigoted rejects that have truly dragged this country to one of its lowest periods in its history.
My kids kids will still be trying to recover from it...at least as long as we live that long.
