True enough, Lucyhere. However, I personally go by one clear guiding principle and always have: If you stand by while letting ignorance, bigotry and fear triumph (Trump?), then you will embody ignorance, bigotry and fear for the rest of your days. I don't think I could live with that self-judgement laid upon my soul, especially viewed thru the brutal lens of history. The pivotal predicament of our existence is that we are forced to decide, day by day, what is right or wrong - it's hard to achieve - whether it's with your family, in your cubicle, on a subway, in traffic, typing online or when we raise our fists. That's what makes us fragile human beings capable of good or evil. In a nutshell, do onto others as you'd wish them to do onto you. Hard to get clearer than that. <stepping off pulpit>Lucyhere wrote:I read it earlier and it's worth reading! It won't make a bit of difference though.

I don't support his super conservative opinions, generally speaking, but I do respect his integrity. He is also, as some may not know, a board certified psychiatrist, therefore a qualified witness to 'mental fitness' or lack of in regards to the presidency. A devastating and scary critique of Trump.
