I often wonder why the really good people seem to fall yet the worthless even criminal individual seems to go on like a demented Energizer Bunny

It is sad. It's also sad that here in almost 2020 racial equality and acceptance just because we re all not the same color, enthenicity, and stupid religious choice is seen and judged before anything else, And that hatred is still taught at home. 2000 god darn 20. and the really sad part. Nothing will ever change. As long as humans are alive, so will hatred for no valid reason.

I still believe in the good in people no matter what pessimistic outlook this president has spread all over this country His divisive behaviors has corrupted so many but the basic goodness is still there People do care many of us are not gullible to fall for his cynical views of others Msny of us don’t subscribe to the absurd conspiracy theories he lives by, Mr Lewis is a great man and as sad as it is to see someone great fall to disease I believe in my heart that another will rise to take up the banner... I believe in this country I took not just an oath to protect her but I believe in the people who make up this country.... I believe there are many more good people than malignant individuals like POTUS who actually hate this country You can’t be POTUS and hate half the country who happens to disagree with you, Calling our Speaker “Crazy” Calling the opposition’s Party “rats” Claiming himself the greatest president. Yes Mr Lewis in contrast fought for equality fought battles to help all Americans not just a select few... A real American Hero

Nothing will ever change. As long as humans are alive, so will hatred for no valid reason. Yes. But people are not born racist. Racism is taught at home and will be self perpetuating until the chain is broken and I don't see that happening much during the Era of Trump when racism is being pushed by the country's supposed leader. Just one generation back, many young people raised in a racist atmosphere were taught to be otherwise by a society that frowned upon it. Now there is a strong element in our society that praises and admires it so I see racism holding its own or even increasing as long as Trump is in office. And it saddens me to say that. |

The current president's legacy will be:
hatred of others,
a divided country,
million/billionaires and corporations lining their pockets
the acceptance of stupidity and lying
the reputation of America in the gutter
Feel free to add to my list

And my hope is that he will go down in history as being the first President to be jailed for crimes committed while in office. |
