A German who voted for Hitler in 1932 said this after the war:
“I never thought things would turn out this way. He said he would make our country GREAT again. I never thought over 60,000,000 people would die in a war. I never thought that he would torture and murder six million Jews. I never thought that he would kill over 3 million Slavs and murder 15,000 homosexuals. I never thought he would euthanize 270,000 disabled people and more than 220,000 Gypsies. He said he would make our country GREAT again.”
“We were coming out of a great economic crisis. Jobs were scarce and money was very tight. He said he would get rid of all the people who were taking our jobs. He would eliminate the ruling class and get the crooks out of politics. Jobs for Germans is what he said. I thought he would make our country GREAT again so I voted for him.”
If I only knew.
Time For Questions:
Are you going to support Fascism in America? Will you fight to protect the rights of minorities, gays, women and immigrants? If not, why do you think you are an American?
Life is Just Beginning.
Hard to imagine life beginning under a Trump presidency. But the race is not always to the swiftest.
“I again saw under the sun that the race is not to the swift and the battle is not to the strong, and neither is bread to the wise nor riches to those of intelligence and understanding nor favor to men of ability; but time and chance overtake them all.” — ECCLESIASTES 9:11

I agree with you John. I would love to entertain the notion that the majority of people would take opposition to any wrong doings against minorities, the LGBT community, women and other issues. In the words of Senor Santayana, “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it”. We have to go forward, not backwards as Trump would have us go. Your blog is good fodder for thought.

Thanks Jeanine. We can still go forward but without Trump.
