The post below was originally shared in October 2019. Maybe we need a little refresher in what we went through with DT as president. Americans don’t seem to remember history very well and the GOP is trying to rewrite history in schools across the country.
Can you imagine if Germany tried to drop the Holocaust from their history classes or taught the Nazi’s perspective, as if it was legitimate, just as they are trying to do right here.
Nikki Haley can’t even acknowledge, and it seems many Trump supporters don’t even know how the Civil War started. Just check this out.

This denial of history is partly how we have wound up looking closer to Germany in the 1920’s and 1930’s than to America in the 1990’s.
Some memories from late 2019:
I’m sure there are many people who just like me would like their lives back but cannot turn away from the high crimes and misdemeanors our president is committing on a daily basis, and it is getting worse.
At first it was just norm breaking but now it is coercing American allies to provide political help for his re-election, and to clear his pal Putin from being blamed for 2016 election interference, while abandoning the Kurds another American ally (or ex-ally) as they become refugees since they have been forced to flee their homes under American sanctioned Turkish gunfire and bombs.
What has been unleashed in America and when will Republicans wake up and join the Democrats in impeaching this out of control president who does more for Putin than for America and our allies?
It’s pretty sad, it’s even worse in 2024.
Don’t give up! There really are more reasonable Americans who want to keep our democracy, but we need to be sure they can and will all vote.
