TRUMP'S BRO VLADIMIR ... Oh, yeah?
Vladimir Putin, Donald Trump's idol, said: “We don't need a weakened government but a strong government that would take responsibility for the rights of the individual and care for the society as a whole.” Not only will Trump take responsibility for the rights of American citizens, he will take them away with the blessings of the Republican party and appointees. As the Republican politicians of both houses ignore the rights, both civil and human, of the American people and those who seek safe haven in the United States, they are denying the very core of our democracy: The American people. The United States government does not operate in a vacuum. We can turn the politicians away. We can prohibit them from abusing us, the citizens. It starts with the Arts, Culture, and Education. Join the writers who will protest in front of the New York Public Library at 42nd Street and 5th Ave. on Sunday, Jan. 15th and march to Trump Presidential Tower on 5th Ave. and 57th Street. And resist the attempt to usurp the rights granted by Constitution. https://pen.org/writersresistnyc

8 年We can't predict what Trump will succeed in doing, but if we're strong enough we can resist and prevent - witness the outcry that stopped the Republicans from destroying the Ethics Commission. At the same time we must resist being distracted by scapegoating - a Trump favorite - that some Democrats are also employing to avoid examining the policies they took that lost them the election.
