@Robecology sometimes it falls that way...I really do evaluate each man as I find him, but it is overwhelming when a group of supposedly powerful men, decide issues for women’s reproductive health. That is when, I tend to lump a certain number together as short sighted, ignorant know-it-alls. As a female, I have had my share of experiences, with males!

Trump has spent the last 18 months turning back all that Obama did during his terms! Must be a lot more than you remember...and besides Obama was never one reporting on Twitter every time he ‘blew his nose!’ Obama went about quietly getting done what he could...as you must remember the very day he was sworn in...McConnell went on National news and said we will ‘make him a one term president!’ He never got cooperation from the GOP, so he never had free reign to get things done! Sure I wanted to see him come out swinging left, right and center, but that was never his style and from my perch...has never been the behavior of Democrats to begin with. Obama was hated because he was not ‘one of us,’...he carries himself with real dignity, and most people never learn that ‘art!’ (He is still doing that today!) ‘They’ just put on their ‘pretend face,’ when out in the world...after which they always get back to their religion and their god...’cause he is on their side! A lot of people are ‘short sighted,’ but the Conservatives ‘short circuit,’ even their ‘short sightedness!’

Freedompath replies on May 3, 2019:
@friendlycatlady friendships can change...especially from our childhood. We sometimes grow in different directions! You keep mentioning things that aren’t agreeable in your relationship...look at both sides and see why it isn’t comfortable...then go from there. Maybe, you see yourself as a good person (possibly better than friend), and can’t reconcile why you cannot find a meaningful match? There is simply no easy formula for relationships, as I can find (and I have studied these things), some that work great for others, would do me in, etc!! Find ways to make yourself happy and if a relationship comes into that picture you will have one...if not you will still be happy anyway! Best of luck, either way!

Not caring that it sets in motion, more lawlessness! I am not a believer in following the rules, if there is reason that they do not make good sense in one certain moment, but I believe we all need guidelines to keep order...and with trump and his administration, rules are not being broken because they don’t make good sense...they are breaking them, because they are making up their own rules as they go along...without investigating or considering what will be the fall out...for real people and not just the rich! This administration does not care about people and what they need for a decent way of life. We are just the ‘outside players,’ in their thoughtless game!

@Tooreen I wish it were that simple even as voting is a necessary step. The people holding the money bags are the ones with the real control of our elected officials and our destiny. That I agree with @Dew25... the worst thing with trump is...he has given a kind of blessing, to those people not prone to thinking deeply about how real life operates, and now they can throw away caution and try and force their dehumanizing notions on the ‘others,’ (us) in our society that are not like them. Some changes will have to come from the people who want the kind of society that trump has conned them into. It want support decency! You are right it started a long time ago and it looks like it will carry into the future! So getting decent people elected want solve all of our problem. So we can’t put all our ‘eggs’ in one basket...lest we loose our Democracy, altogether.
More obscene actions from the Trump administration.

And yet if the Democratic candidate isn't Bernie people won't vote, or if its Joe peole won't be motivated.If its Elizabeth people will have concerns or any other candidate. It's a simple choice anyone but trump . Its a simple as ABT
Freedompath replies on May 2, 2019:
@Dew25 I am trying hard to be clear in my understanding, it all starts with our basic understanding...I do a disservice to anyone when I can’t understand what they are trying to tell me and instead pretend that I do (or worse still...that I don’t care).

@Tooreen me attack you?...if pointing out how you point your fingers at others, as if they should have done what YOU thought was best, is attacking people, then there is clearly an understanding problem here. Why are you going back into the past almost before you were born and into the future, which you know not of...to point out where WE went and are going wrong? Most of us try and ‘live in the moment,’ yesterday is gone and we may not have tomorrow! And yet you throw all your ‘nets’ out of even your own reach...forget the rest of us! ‘Houston we have a problem!’

Why is it that most of this kind of behavior is coming from the Republicans. They must really believe this is winning.

If there are things that you are or that you do, that irritates others...let them deal with it! That is what we all must do with things about people that rub us the wrong way! You/we are not here to please others...you will be lucky if most of the time you can please yourself! I just make a great effort not to ‘dump,’ my frustration off on others...I own them...then pick myself up and proceed. I do want to preserve my self respect. Good luck.
