    Only time I will ever say this but, I hope Trump gets the love he deserves. I only wish endless love for Trump.

      So much love. The most love. Bigly love even. He’s going to have so much love, he won’t know where to put it all. He’ll have so much love, it’ll be hard to breathe. Suffocated by all that tariff free American love.

      Heh. We want mercy for ourselves and “justice” for our neighbors. That’s what’s wrong with the world.

        ha, theres no mercy in the u.s. the richest country in the world cant afford to solve for homelessness, hunger, education or racism

        in the untied states justice means ‘revenge’.

          It starts with individual attitude shifts, you know? If I was reared this way, and continued for another 3 decades and can make the shift, pretty much anyone can. The idea is not to shift back. While society and media seek to make it extremely difficult, it’s still very, very possible. Mandela had the right idea in not seeking revenge.

            I wish I could agree with you. But mercy and lack of revenge the first time around is what brought us here today. Post civil war Reconstruction was far, far too kind to the people who thought they were entitled to owning the lives of other human beings.

              Pollution doesn’t stay where we send it, literal or figurative. Weakness seeks to control others. Strength is calming our own inner beasts. Good luck friend.
