What Now?

Well, we sher showed them uppity librils, didn't we?  They think there so smart with their book lernin n sech.  Well, we showed them!  Theys corrupt an think we don't know!  So we put a straight talkin white man in the White House!  The libril media sez he lies most of the time, and says he assaults wimmin but they would say that wouldn't they!  Fox News lahks him and what they say is the gospel truth!

Besides, it's not like liberals understand business.  They never owned a small business- they've never had to sign a check.  We need a successful businessman in charge.  let's face it, Obamacare was making us pay a LOT of money to get our employees insurance that they should be getting for themselves.  What?  Trump and his bankruptcies?  That's in the past!


Also, those liberals support THOSE people.  Homosexuality is an abomination!  It says so in the Bible!  I heard that on Fox News.  And don't even get me started on those trannies!  And abortion!  It's a sin!  It's horrible how some women just end their pregnancies on a whim like that!  The Bible says so!  They should have as many children as they can and serve their men and be silent!  The Bible says so!  I'd show you but I don't know where my copy is right now.

Yes!  That bitch had NO respect for our rights!  Especially for the second amendment!  She was coming for our guns!  Trump and the NRA said so! No one will take my guns from me ever!  Not unless they pry them from my cold. dead hands!  After all, I need them to fight of a tyrannical liberal government!  What?  Well Obama was GOING to take away our guns but never got around to it!  Now I can exercise my right to carry my AK-47 to the supermarket, just as God intended!

"No one really knows why they are alive until they know what they'd die for."
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.


"THESE are the times that try men's souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman. Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly: it is dearness only that gives every thing its value. Heaven knows how to put a proper price upon its goods; and it would be strange indeed if so celestial an article as freedom should not be highly rated."
Thomas Paine

At what point then is the approach of danger to be expected? I answer, if it ever reach us, it must spring up amongst us. It cannot come from abroad. If destruction be our lot, we must ourselves be its author and finisher. As a nation of freemen, we must live through all time, or die by suicide.
President Abraham Lincoln


Change will not come if we wait for some other person or some other time. We are the ones we've been waiting for. We are the change that we seek.
President Barack Obama



So.  The people elected a monster: a racist, misogynistic, xenophobic, homophobic, transphobic, narcissist.  He has threatened or insulted everyone in America that ISN'T a white male.  And so now...

What do we do?

I've spent days crying and trying to get my feet under me.  My faith in the people of the United States is severely shaken.

But I'm not surprised.  Thirty years of Hate spewing from the GOP propaganda machine gave us this end result.  People HATE those who are different.  Violence in Trump's name is already spiking, and he hasn't even taken office.

I'm sick to death of having cisgender white males tell me everything will be all right- THEY aren't the ones targeted.

What shall we do?

What CAN we do?

We do what we've always done- we Endure and we Fight.  

The stakes have never been higher than now.  We fight for the life of the American Experiment; for our Nation itself.  And, in addition, we fight for our very lives.

And make no mistake- those are the stakes we're fighting for.  If we succeed we, and our Nation survives.  If we fail, we, our loved ones, and our Nation, will cease to exist.  We will become a dictatorship of Hate, and the greatest threat the world has ever known.

If we lose, it could literally cause the end of humanity itself.

I have no illusion as to the costs.  I don't expect to survive to see another presidential election- if Trump even allows one.  But I WILL fight.  I am a fifty year old out of shape woman.  I will use the weapons I have- my Mind and my Words.

And by God's Grace, I hope they are enough.

Be well.

  1. Sophie -

    You and I share similar attitudes. I believe in tit for tat - do to them what they do to us. Most people who voted for Trump simply hated Hillary because of 30 years of vicious propaganda against her. The Democrats blew this election big time, by not seeing the trends that propelled Trump into office. Remember, Trump stands for nothing but his own gain. The GOP doesn't respect him, but bows to him because he won. Mark my words, he will be a one term president - and the GOP will regret its mistakes. All we have to do is accept this temporary setback, and make sure that we fight delaying actions to take up the better part of 4 years.....

    1. Having ranted about the election, I just wanted to tell you How much I admire you for all you have accomplished in spite of all the trials and tribulations you have been through. You are a remarkable woman. Danielle

    2. Well Danielle, you make a LOT of assertions. I'd ask you for proof from legitimate sources for ANY of your accusations, but I know you don't have any.

      HRC is FAR from perfect, but she's FAR better than a racist, misogynist facist, which is who you elected.

      As for supporting the community and voting for Trump, you are mistaken. One cannot do both. Bu voting Trump, you have voted for our DEATHS. Nothing less.

      That makes you a collaborator.

  2. We will not vanish from the earth. We will not go down without a fight.

    Also we will totally kick alien ass should it show up, but for now, we fight for the soul of our country.
