Note to a True Radical

What do progressives hope for, given the runaway criminality of the U.S. president?

The woman at left is what is properly called a “radical,” from the Latin for “root.”  Pull it out by its roots, or in this case, burn it to the ground.  I’ve heard this viewpoint expressed dozens of times, most recently by the wife of an old school chum.

I’m as disgusted by the downward spiral that Trump is inflicting upon the United States is experiencing as the next guy, but I can’t get on board with this.

My message here: every decent U.S. citizen wants this turned around, but we can do this without ruining the lives of hundreds of millions of Americans.  Trump is suffering a plummeting decline in voter supporter.  We’re more than halfway home back to reason, compassion for others, and most of all, rule of law.

I appreciate how upset you are, but I beg you to reconsider.
