Some days, I am about to give up. The stress is almost unbearable wondering what in the hell the asshole is going to do next. I get mad at myself for not being able to tune it out, but we can't. And you know why we can't? Because we care about our country and our people, and our future generations.

So you are completely right in that we all need one another to get through this!!!
