Well, the midterms weren't exactly the referendum I had hoped for. Sure, the Republicans lost the House, but the same group increased their hold on the Senate. Dems picked up a few governorships, but all in all this was far from a resounding statement.

We as a country did not rise to our feet and announce in a loud proud voice - enough is enough. We did not succeed in our duty to protect the U.S.A.

I am embarrassed and ashamed for all of us. And not just a little afraid for our future.
Yes, I understand this is not a Republican vs Democrat thing. If the Dems had somebody their constituency so blindly followed as with Trump they would be acting like the mindless puppies the Republicans are. And Trump is no Republican, anyway. Trump is Trumpian. 'lil Donnie is a dictator wanna-be. But we are stuck with him still, and his hangers-on.

Trump will continue his mission to legitimize, make O.K. prejudice and paranoia. Rage. Trump will contnue to provide venue for the haters to openly hate.

He did not invent any of this, rather, he is only bringing it out in the open. The underlying anger, rage forming his base in not his doing. But make no mistake, he will continue to feed off your ills. Trump (almost) got elected by playing on, capitalizing on that negative energy. Trump did not create the problems we face today. As the "United" States of American continues to pull itself apart. No, he simply brought the latent ugliness out of the shadows. To his personal benefit. He is using you as would any other parasite.

Those of you continuing your support are either haters who, like Trump, thrive on negative energy, or you have been played. Simple as that. So simple, in fact, no reasonable argument can be made to the contrary. That you support a blatant traitor to the core values this country was founded on, cannot be argued against.

So, as you continue to cheer the unraveling of your country, as you champion darkness, and negativity...….for women trumpites, selling out their entire gender....for anyone in a minority group (other than the 1%) who support this trainwreck, actively harming yourself and your own. For all of you part of the decline of even the most basic moral code, as you support misogyny and prejudice and nepotism and racism and child sexual abuse and prostitution and pussy grabbing and lying and thieving (all you conservative "Christians" raising that bible high, right :)) and the reason for #mettoo. As you continue backing a veritable walking talking Freudian textbook of mental fuck-ups and as you do your very very very best to ensure we continue losing relevance on the world stage, lose power you instead force us to take our place amongst other like-minded back-water banana republics - congratulations :)

I was around during Watergate.  Very troubled period for our Country.  We were actually scared.   Yet even on a GOOD day worse things happen with this current administration than the darkest days of Watergate.  History is proving Nixon was a goddamn patriot compared to Trump.  What we have come to accept as the new "normal" so much worse.  Or, in the recent words of John Dean, Nixon's WH Counsel at the time:  "Richard Nixon was corrupt.  Donald Trump is evil."

We had a chance to largely neuter him, with these midterm elections. We failed.
You failed.  

You are actively part of the sinking of this great ship so many before you sacrificed so much for. You have managed to go a long ways towards undoing 242 years of effort.

Trump is not the problem. Trump has simply laid bare who we really are. This Country always was a bit uppity with its egalitarian founding principles. We have been giving ourselves far too much credit. Simple fact is we are human. Inherently self-destructive. Ugly. I suppose I just always hoped we are more. Hoped we are better than we are. Thank you Mr President for so blatantly proving otherwise.
These midterm elections show that Trump is not the problem
We are. You are.
