and to be honest I am tired of carrying the burden of the idiots too stupid to set aside their personal biases and vote for the greater good... as Democrats we tend to think because the demographic is multicultural/multi-ethnic/inclusive we are without hate...but that's not true...within our collective "kumbaya" there is racism/antisemitism,/misogyny/anti-gay bigotry....and after almost seven decades of marching/donating/knocking on doors I'm done...

I'm now a lawn chair observer of the coming Trump train wreck...when Latino Trump voters are begging someone to stop the round up and deportation of family members don't look to me for help...when middle class Trump voting women and their young daughters have to carry and give birth to their rapists babies don't look at me for help...when polio/diphtheria/mumps/measles/small pox stampede thru classrooms don't look to me for help...buyers remorse is a bitch...
