I love my country and all it's possibilities but not today and really not since trump stole our presidency. Now my love for my country is limited to the few things that are being done right in the face of all the wrong being done by the trumps. It isn't just me that is in an uncomfortable limbo about our nation, it is the rest of the world that is in shock that we Americans have allowed a con man to lead us and steal from us our pride in exemplifying equality and justice. We are now run by a want to be gangster who loves his nazi/kkk fellowship. What is even more galling are the churches who are defending his anti christian nature as christian.
I am no follower of religion but even I respected the goodness and mercy the church tried to teach in the past. But the teachings now in the church are so far from the humility and love that Christ supposedly died for that one can only assume that Christ is no longer the example of religious exceptionalism. The cowards in the church have instead now fallen prey to the mean nasty brutish haters who would sooner crush life that lift it up. But enough about how we Americans have fallen to our knees to worship a republican jesus and instead let's focus on the barely human swill that drives our federal and state governments. These republicans have sought to diminish the nature of free will and natural rights to an economic argument centered around white pride and survival of the fittest.
The rest of the world sees our fall into fascist tendencies with segregation being reborn and misogyny appreciated. The rest of the world is contemptuous of our current leadership and it won't be long before they are contemptuous of all Americans for allowing it to continue. They would be right in their assessment because we Americans have lost what value we had in being the model instead of the avoidance. I love my country despite the trumps and as such will fight for her to eliminate the trumps from all spheres of public office. The republican party is the vehicle for which the trumps have commandeered and until we shut down that vehicle and the trumps we Americans will continue to be an embarrassment to any enlightened mind.
