You know we’re getting close to Christmas and the end of another year. I don’t want to talk about the past year it hasn’t been one of my best. For that matter the country hasn’t had a good year either. Which brings me to a point. Did the Trumpster, by getting involved with how we say Merry Christmas or happy Holidays, actually ruin Christmas. Well I know he ruined it but I’m not sure if was about that. I think he ruined it by encouraging Bigotry and Racism. In his desire to make his supporters happy he has set not only our relationships with each other, but our relationships with other countries back 50 years. Two years ago I went to bed feeling fairly safe that the cold war was over and peace was looking good. Three weeks later I went to bed and couldn’t get to sleep because everything was starting to go to hell. Whatever happens in the future whether good or bad we will only have ourselves to blame. We’ve but into place the worst President I my lifetime, perhaps ever, and a bunch of politicians that have no empathy for the poor or sick ao even the one that are as old as them. They have done so much damage by giving credibility to the far right that the damage done in two years will take 30 to fix. They don’t believe in science and think that oil and coal are going to be here for ever and have no effect on the Climate. They don’t care because they’ll be dead before we are. They don’t care about health care because they have it for the rest of there lives. I remember when Obama was discussing this one time and he said, and I’m paraphrasing. I have the best Heath insurance in the world. You see that man back there he my doctor he follows me everywhere., he’s on me if I sneeze and best of all it’s free. He was being honest about it he wasn’t bragging he was just saying how it is. The rest of the dicks in the Senate and Congress don’t have the Doctor following them around but their medical care is covered by us. I read somewhere this week where someone had proposed a bill that would make congress and the senate go out and get their own insurance and wouldn’t let them vote themselves raises and other things which we all know won’t get passed because there not about to give up what they have. Now were in the Holiday season and all they care about is building walls and other bullshit. You I not only remember safer times I remember when people actually cared about other people. A time when you knew your neighbors names as well as there kids and you would look after each other. Now something happen and no one sees anything or stops to help anybody. They just put there heads down and walk rapidly away. I don’t know what the future hold for the world I’m 72 years old and I don’t know how much more I’ll get to see. But I would like to see Christmas as it used to be a happy time for kids and families. This is Flounder and Fats saying CIAO from Medellin, Colombia.
