Trump Supporters Are Happy People Just Now

One of every five children separated is under five

I just had a sad realization, but one I wanted to share nonetheless.

I got a Christmas card from an old college buddy who wrote, among the usual seasonal messaging, “Everyone here had a very good year.”  I turned immediately to my wife, and said, “OMG, he’s a Trump supporter.  Those are the only Americans who could possibly say they had very good years.  Everyone else feels at least some level of sorrow for those who are suffering, and will continue to do so many years after Trump’s gone, as a result of his cruel policies, too numerous to name. And it doesn’t stop with sorrow; we feel a deep anger towards the perpetrator and his enablers.

If you had a “very good year” when 5400 children are locked up, separated from their parents, and the environment is being torn apart, I don’t know what to tell you.
