tigriswolfI’m never saying the pledge, singing the national anthem, or saluting the flag again.
.
I’ve never been proud of my country, exactly, but in all my life, I’ve never been more ashamed of it than I am right now.
.
The garbage bag wearing a human suit can’t even finish a coherent sentence, so how did so many people vote for him? How did any woman? I hadn’t actually realized what ex-felons being unable to vote could do. I hadn’t even realized a Voting Acts Right existed much less was taken away in 20 fucking 13.
If I, a middle class white woman, feel this horrified and terrified… I’m sorry. I’m so sorry.
I need to find something GOOD to do because I’m about to crawl out of my skin.
