I loved your piece, Pamela, and admire your bravery in speaking your truth and mine too, for that matter. Politics is a messy business and many of our politicians are no better than Trump, but can you even imagine him as our president?? A man like that representing our country?? How embarrassing and truly sad. rosedevahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12999514584981485599noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5917331337767835985.post-19842074153670571212015-08-20T10:32:31.210-04:002015-08-20T10:32:31.210-04:00Our politicians are not much better Pamela.Our politicians are not much better Pamela.The Weaver of Grasshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13947971556343746883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5917331337767835985.post-15833918644195830122015-08-19T17:04:05.462-04:002015-08-19T17:04:05.462-04:00Oops, I meant "circus harms".Oops, I meant "circus harms".curioushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18238207035690612215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5917331337767835985.post-38375731735562120822015-08-19T17:03:16.006-04:002015-08-19T17:03:16.006-04:00Amen.

One of the things that stands out to me is that he is praised for his 'authenticity.' I can't think of a less authentic person, except perhaps as a genuine narcissist. You can google what it means to be a highly authentic person. This he is not.

I wish I were confident that is the case. I feel like it would be not only embarrassing but dangerous for America if he were to somehow win the nomination. If, as your other reader declares, he is only speaking what others feel, then I worry that there are a lot of hateful people in the U.S. and that saddens me. thank you for opening the door to this discussion, however, I am so tired of the coverage that I may opt out of discussion until sometime next summer when there is a clear understanding of who is left standing.<br />xo,<br />KarenKarenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08064699521293763744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5917331337767835985.post-14223790119266859292015-08-19T15:46:01.814-04:002015-08-19T15:46:01.814-04:00The Dumpster will just pay someone to read this bo...The Dumpster will just pay someone to read this book to him. What is shocking to me is how vulgar, hateful and spiteful he is, and how clearly he expresses the Republican party platform in a way they have successfully avoided for years through their carefully-worded public relations doublespeak.
