Why, why, why can't he just die?! [View all]

I am so very sorry, friends, to post such a thread, but my heart is breaking for all the damage he has done, the lives that have been lost under his reign of terror, the pain and suffering he has caused with jobs lost, health care lost or priced out of reach. the false arrests of law-abiding citizens, families torn apart...the list goes on and on, but I know I'm preaching to the choir here.

He's even evaded three or possibly four assassination attempts. He is evil personified, and yet he's in the White House, living in the lap of luxury, destroying what this country has held dear for 250 years.

I'm a Baby Boomer; we've fought the good fights, stood up in masses to protect and defend this country, and Trump and his evil horde are destroying it every single day. Yes, every single day. I fear for the young people who will inherit this horror.

In what should be my golden years, I hate to wake up to this every morning. It hurts beyond words,
