Right. Literally talking about Trump like he's Jesus when he's as far as one could get from being like him.

Americans kill more americans than ms-13. By a long shot. This talk from Trump is just racist fearmongering. Just like how the media regularly portrays black ppl as violent and dangerous. It's extremely harmful because Trump won't stop at the immigrants.

Trump is the antithesis of all the things the OP said. I won't knock you. Trump is not on anyone but Trump's side. I don't think someone who cares about other people would deny fema aid and hold off giving a state fema aid till 2 months after the tornadoes hit them. A red state at that too.

Even red states are getting screwed. Like NC is still needing fema aid and not getting it, even with the gen assembly (NC house) being overwhelmingly red. And one of those states hit by tornadoes only got fema aid 2 months after the fact, and no attention from Trump.

Local governments making new houses instead of reliable public transportation or parks. And destroying parks for new housing developments. It's like man is at war with nature, and nature's losing.

Truth. I didn't start reading for fun till after high school because of the book reports and quizzes on the books. I don't need to know or remember every little part of a book to enjoy it. What's enjoyable sticks out naturally above the other things anyways.

Yeah, conversations like that are the best! Very spontanious and at the same time, very rewarding as well.

Reading: The Girls of Atomic City. It's a nonfiction about the role women played in the manhattan project and I liked how it read. Like "General Leslie Groves" was called: "The General." I have a hundred and 60 pages left and my next book to read is: "What We Can't Have."
