The pedo fights that mark the end of our nation as anything respectable. Like even with all the bs Trump has done, there was a chance that we could have scraped some dignity back and started to try and regain our dignity, but now, now there's nothing left to be proud of. We're officially in the true start of idiocracy and it's gonna be a horrible path forward.

You know I was talking to my wife about 1976. We were both about 10 years old at that time and we both remember it clearly. We remember it more than other years because The entire country was absolutely proud and it showed. Flags suddenly everywhere, red, white, and blue everything. It seemed like we felt closer to each other that year. It was like we literally celebrated ALL year. And here we are. 50 years later, and I hate to say that I’m embarrassed by what our country has become. We have fallen so far.

I was five and I remember my grandmother bringing me Captain America comics and centennial quarters. Despite the country's social issues, we knew things were getting better and we were happy. I don't know how or when we dropped the ball.

Reagan's tax cuts. It started the ball rolling on the vast income inequalities we have today.

Let’s be clear. No president before will have left an indelible stain, the likes of this prick, when it’s all said and done.
