We Knew The Republicans Have No Spine, No Love For Justice. Rise Up, Voters. This Is On You Now.

Their easy acquittal of trump - in the face of damning evidence, the Republicans in the Senate refused to even uphold their oath to fairly hear witnesses and review the paper trail - was unavoidable.

It's also horrific, a blatant slap in the face of the majority of Americans - some Republican voters included - who wanted a fair and just Impeachment.

This is now all on them, America. Every Republican who voted to acquit is an accomplice to trump's criminal ways.

The Republicans who gave trump a "Get Out of Jail Free Forever" card deserves the only remaining form of accountability left to us: Getting voted out of office forever.

To every registered voter out there: FOR THE LOVE OF GOD HOLD REPUBLICANS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE CRIMINAL MISDEEDS OF donald trump. The rot is not just at the top, America: The entire Republican Party was a cesspool long before trump announced his campaign, he's merely profiting from their greedy broken habits as well.

Fight back, America.

GET THE VOTE OUT, America.

AND FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, DO NOT VOTE FOR ANY REPUBLICAN AT ANY LEVEL OF OFFICE.

Please.

We're barely surviving four years of this crap: Tariffs shredding our farms and manufacturers, massive income inequality in the face of questionable employment numbers, growing federal deficits as GOP tax cuts for the rich fail to pay themselves, an immigration system consumed by racism and an obsessive need to break families - WHERE ARE THE CHILDREN, STILL? - and a loss of global prestige from trump's temper tantrums against our own allies. Can you imagine another four years of trump, convinced by whatever corrupt method he's used to cheat another election - because he will get worse now that the Senate "vindicated him" - that he can break even more laws, violate more norms, destroy more lives? And never have to answer for any of it ever again?

For the Love of GOD, America. trump is destroying us. Throw him out before he can do any further damage to us.

I'm thinking that Fergus, now unchained, will do what he always does only worse, and that will provide campaign ammunition for whoever we nominate.
Now to avoid letting them turn the nomination process into a circular firing squad like last time.

Yeah, we're living on a hillside close to Yosemite with our friend Zsuzs. Can't afford to live in the East Bay on one SSDI check. It's beautiful here, but I do miss Oakland, where I lived for 35 years and still consider to be my home.
So far, so good: I've got an appointment Friday with a new doctor to get my prescriptions renewed, and I just registered to vote by mail from here.
Kind of a shock going from Barbara Lee to Tom McClintock, so now I have a real, live, Republican to vote against. Don't really get to do that in Oakland...
