(5,831 posts)2. It's heartbreaking that this is where we are because of Trump
We are a traumatized nation. Im not going to let the abuser tell me that I shouldnt criticize him for inflicting trauma, and wanting to continue his abuse.
I dont agree with anyone who tells democrats that they should tone it down or that we are supposed to care about trump.
Nobody would tell an abuse victim to sympathize with their abuser. Its preposterous. That victim wouldnt care if he was run over by a Mac truck. Likewise, I am not going to feign concern about trump.
My heart breaks for my country and the violence he has brought upon us.
