Is this really my country?

There are people who defend trump’s position on separating children. Not trump, of course. He blames the Dems for his own policy, and says he will fix it if they just give him his wall. That’s just terrorism. From the US President.
I never meant for this to be a political blog. I’d rather write about restaurants, plays and travel. But the only thing necessary for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing. This must not continue.

Hi Chris,
Seems obvious to me that lots of good people are doing nothing. And yes, you are right, this is exactly what happened in Germany in the 30’s, and in the US in the 40’s (Japanese Americans) and 50’s (McCarthy), in Yugoslavia in the 90’s, in Rwanda, in the Congo, in Burma…do I need to go on? Though I know this is not my country, I am still here. Maybe I am a hopeless optimist. But at least I can leave at a moment’s notice.

Chris, I’m in total agreement with you. Thanks for putting yourself out there.
Holding children hostage for political purposes is beyond evil….
