21. It makes me sad and embarrassed to be an American these days.

What's worse, I'm becoming more terrified each day that one day soon we will see a major retaliation on our home grounds, killing and maiming thousands of our citizens. trump is out of his mind; more and more of his proclamations seem manic in tone and presentation. He revels in the inhumane cruelty, and we are the ones who will pay for his insanity.

I've reached the point where I give deep consideration before attending popular, well-attended activities in my city. Nowhere is 100% safe anymore and, while "it shouldn't happen here", it may well.

trump scares the shit out of me.
