People will not learn their lessons when supporting Trump. He can unleash anger like no president before him, but that is it. So we have a pissed off white male running the country. What else is new?

The Trump Administration is a dictatorship not a presidency. If you disagree with the president's lies then you go to jail. If you tell the truth then it's criminal. Trump is also trying to get rid of the rule of law.

It's past time to impeach Trump again and take him out of power permanently!

It's an embarrassment to be an American right now. We have NO President.

Hey Trump: Try to ban these kinds of shirts 👇

Impeach, convict, remove and Indict.

I've been embarrassed and ashamed to be an American for a long time. Trump is the inevitable culmination of American madness, ignorance, stupidity, hatred, racism, sexism, homophobia, and xenophobia. If I had the money to leave I'd be gone, but I'm too old and too poor and am stuck here living out my last years under a fascist regime.

I'm not embarrassed nor ashamed to be an American. I'm proud of it. I'm embarrassed and ashamed of our leaders. There are so many in this administration. tRump is not doing this all by himself. There are many to share the blame with him. Our senate that refuses to do what they were elected to do, the Justice Department that does not uphold our Constitution, the goonies that put our country at risk, and the newcasters that spread the lies. Yes, they are under tRump, but will they be a VOICE OF ANYTHING THAT IS NOT A LIE? No they won't because they are tRump wantabes. We have to turn this country around. Teach it to know that it is okay to tell the truth and that lies are not the norm. Lies hurt everyone. It's so sad that our country has become the laughing stock of the whole world. I'm proud to be an American. I know the difference between right and wrong, I have values. I respect our Constitution and want our Democracy. Why do you think the other countries don't want our so-called "important" people to visit them? They are tired of the lies. They know that this isn't normal. They don't respect them. But they know that all Americans are not like that. They know that these people are the "bad apples" in the barrel. They understand that we are suffering because of these "bad apples." We will honor our Constitution, even if, those in power, refuse to do so. We will fight the "bad apples" and we will win. American is too great of a country to fail to do so.

Several commenters calling themselves to old and tired to fight. At two recent protests noted prevalence of my peers: I’m 77. Just being counted counts.

And maybe do some teaching within your own family to push your kids and grandkids into the fray. Write to your local paper and your representatives. Action can stir up hope. Love.

Linda, I can’t believe your country has sunk to a dictatorship, and so quickly under the so called leadership of this disgusting man. 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦

I'm not at all surprised. This has been coming for a long time. The Right has been panting to undo the New Deal since at least 1945, and really since FDR's election in 1932. This country is full of mindless assholes who love the idea of being told what to think and inflicting pain on those they hate.

Heather B I'm proud to be American. We did not elect Russian insurgent krasnov/Trump, paid for with dark money from his oligarch friends! Insurgent krasnov/Trump is not an elected official. He doesn't really have any power over us legally. This is J6 part 2. Our military has the obligation to step in and remove him.

They won't. America elected him TWICE and mostly by sitting home and not voting. Democracy is participatory. Use it or lose it. We're in the lose it phase.

I know about this and yes, they interfered in both elections to a huge degree as they have done in Canada and every other western country. The west has been propagandized to a point they are tearing each other apart as planned. People STILL voted for him.They are in a cult and that's what they did.
