Michelle Obama: Destruction is swift and merciless. Maybe it’s a hurricane that rips through the coastline. Maybe it’s a virus that steals our loved ones and leaves us isolated and alone. Maybe it’s technology that multiplies our rage. Or maybe it’s a small man trying to make himself feel big by pouring gasoline on other people’s genuine pain and anger.

'a small man'

Democrats and really all of civilized society has joined this battle toward the goal of defeating Trump for good. It's been a remarkable display of starpower, and Democrats have actual political stars, not whiners, naysayers, and private interest politicians.

and she is so correct in what she says. Let's rise to this occasion and get these bottom feeders back to their swamps. Elon Musk and the rest of his South African billionaire buddies, who want to see apartheid here in the US, and want to see our economy faulter, and saying we will experience hardship, and throw us into chaos so that they can steal from us. Let's stop them with our VOTES!!!!!!
