Wrap your mind around this. Today our president defended the guy that his own CIA said that he ordered the killing of a US citizen. Then he threw a state dinner for the guy and is selling him F-35's who the crown prince will then give to China so they can copy our technology. America First my ass!

As a man I was never abused, but I know women (then girls) who were. For the Radical Right Republicans to support Epstein, Trump and others is an insult to every girl or boy who was ever abused by these men. Look in the faces of your children, magats, and tell me how you can support Trump.

Thinking that a political party, would fight to protect men who preyed on children disgusts me. The trauma, pain these innocent women had to endure thanks to Epstein, Trump, etc. makes me angry. Someday Trump's supporters will look in the mirror and wonder "why".
