I am not sorry Hillary lost but I am sorry that Trump won. Too bad there wasn't another viable candidate. It amazes me this country couldn't produce someone better to run things.
What person would run for any public office now....from Mayor to President? The vicious personal attacks on the candidate, their family, their friends, their business associates are relentless and potentially physically dangerous. An emotionally heathy person wouldn't consider public service worth the personal cost and that is unfortunate.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. There is a REASON that Ringling Bros. shut down at the end of 2016.
You mean the terrible cruelty the animals suffered?
Over half of the cats had cracked pads on their paws from the harsh surface. Some suffered from severe hygromas (fluid-filled swellings) from constantly lying on hard surfaces.. didn’t see any evidence that the condition was being treated, putting the animals at risk of developing severe inflammation, ulceration, infection, abscesses, granulomas, and fistulas.
Nothing about the circus is natural for tigers, who are whipped into performing and punished for simply behaving according to their nature.
In the U.S. alone, 128 captive cats and 24 humans have died and 270 humans have been injured since 1990.
I've called all my members of Congress multiple times this week. I also called the DOJ today. The firing of Comey, who was in the middle of an investigation of possible collusion between Trump's campaign and Russia, is obstruction of justice.
We are heading toward a dictatorship, and most in the GOP are happily following along.
Mitch McConnel and Paul Ryan are pretending it's just a normal week.
Thanks for voicing your opinion. Everyone - contact both of your US Senators and your 1 US Rep.
If you don't want to call, google their names and you will get their official web page which has CONTACT info. On that page is a fill-in-form where you add your comments. Takes 2 minutes.
Here's an official web site that you can use to contact your senators and us rep.
Gross incompetence aside, President Trump demonstrates signs of deep rooted mental derangement, scattered thought process, and most critically, Delusional Disorder.
I sincerely hope this isn't the case. But the signs and symptoms are observable. If he does indeed suffer from any of these (possibly untreated) maladies, we will continue witnessing more incidences of reckless behavior and comments from the President.

The president's job isn't to "run things." He's a public servant, not a ruler. The congress needs to get it's act together. If Trump wants to make America great again (hint: he doesn't), then he'd return the powers the presidency has that were once exclusively congress'. This would force congress into being a proper branch of the government again, and might get voters to give a damn about the election that realistically matters more.

Trump was a big fan of elephants in the Ringling circus. When they agreed to stop using them he tweeted angrily about it.
Now he's an elephant in the circus that our federal government has become.
