Saturday was my 67th birthday. This is what I posted on FB. I thought I would share it here.

Thank you for all the birthday wishes!

For my birthday I hope and pray that

We as Americans will move on from the tragedy that this country has been through in the last 10 years in the name of Trump and we will find Peace so we can respect our differences and enjoy this amazing country that we all love. What has happened to my Republican friends and Family?

It surprises me everyday that people, especially women, would vote for such a vile, misogynistic, nasty, morally corrupt man. I will never, ever understand the attraction from those that are all about Family Values and Patriotism. There is nothing moral or patriotic about Trump. He is a poor excuse for a businessman. He speaks and lies stream out of his mouth. He insults people and immigrants. He causes violence against the most innocent in this country. He gives his rich buddies tax cuts that hurt the middle class.

Democrats are not perfect, but they are a hell of a lot better than the man who screams” They are eating cats and dogs” in order to make his cult hate migrants and people of color, causing death threats and bomb threats that cause schools to close in communities that just want to live in Peace. It’s a tragic time in our country and I hope to God it ends in November so we can all just have a Peaceful transition and move on from these last 10 years of darkness.

Oh, and despite this guy clearly being squirrel food, he legally bought a used AK-47 and open-carried it onto Trump's golf course because...Florida. Do you suppose, if we asked nicely, that Spain would take it off our hands...?

Well, you know...he shot at Trump, he must be a Democrat, because the media's Corporate Masters must have their Sweet, Sweet tax breaks! And...Trump's good entertainment value, unlike somebody, you know, CAPABLE of leading!

Gods, I'm coming to hate these cowardly assclowns and the corrupt Nazi Apologist Rich Dudes who sign their paychecks....

He didn’t, actually. He just pointed his weapon “down range”. The only shots fired were from secret service agents.

Also something that really hasn't come up much—he didn't even SHOOT at Trump, he just pointed his gun in the same general direction Trump was!

Maybe he thought Trump was a deer with a red hat....

The violence directed at Trump, if that’s what it is, was instigated by Donald Trump.

Did he really think he could vomit hate&violence&none of this rhetoric would come back on him?

Yet we’re supposed to believe the myth of the “Liberal Media”.

Taken alive, unharmed.

Who is the witness?

This very VERY convenient witness who managed to get all this information to law enforcement within seconds.

Yes the whole situation seems very shady.

Yet another unhinged person with weaponry, as I call it. Am I surprised at this attempt at Trump? No, he incites violence everywhere he goes and I'm sure there will be more to come sadly. He is a disgusting human being and will always bring out the worst of the worst. However, reading the history of this offender Routh below, the overarching issue of needing gun law reform is like a hard smack in the face when you look at this guy's track record. I mean, he is the f****** poster child of desperately needing effective gun laws and legislation! Hol-ee shit! And there are more out there just like him running amok! Lastly, the mainstream media - do your job already and report the facts. 😣

Side note: Florida report ... the maga nutbags are coming out now in full regalia. LOL I am not attending any local Dem rallies here in SWFL - too dangerous down here. Our local dems are not taking security serious enough in my opinion. ugh.

Trump flag sale display has a flag “The HO must go”. Who makes and sells this stuff?

So what proof do we have that he “voted for Trump.”

He said it on Twitter, on his feed

It's always good to double check.

I often wonder what the founders expected of a free press when they enshrined them in the Constitution and free speech as well. I sometimes think the liars want a free press and free speech more than truth tellers. One thing for sure the liars are cashing in big time.

Can we sue them? They need to be lawsuited to stop them.

Gosh, it’s almost like bat-shit crazy, violence obsessed, convicted criminals SHOULD NOT be allowed access to firearms of any kind.

Shortly after Fox went on the air, a Republican Representative from Florida was found to have been sexting his underage male pages. When Fox “reported” on this, the “crawler” at the bottom of the screen had the Representative’s name followed by a D. When challenged about this happening, Fox News claimed it was a simple mistake, at least the first several times it kept happening. After that, since nobody seemed to care, they stopped making excuses and just went farther and farther with each lie.

Now, thirty years later, here we are. The GOP, having learned that it can lie blatantly and grotesquely without suffering any sort of negative consequences, no longer even cares to pretend that they are telling the truth, even a tiny bit. After all, it works fine and the adults just don’t care.

If you’re referring to the Mark Foley incident, that was in 2006; Fox “News” had been on the air for a while already by that point.

I think you’re right. I remembered a different name and that it happened in the Clinton admin, but I guess my memory has not improved with age.

In any event, that was the first time I saw that they openly lied, and lied repeatedly. Every time they got away with it, they got more brazen and more imaginative. Parentless kids are like that.

Shocking… and AG Sulzberger is avidly promoting a Nazi for US President.
