Wonderful, rational rant, and an amazingly inclusive list of why tRump is toxic and the choice is clear. But hopefully searching for answers about the political divide will help us heal as a Nation when we succeed in electing another rational administration.

I just started reading “Good Reasonable People: The Psychology Behind Americas Dangerous Divide, by Keith Payne

Sadly, I do live in Rump country in the most republican county in WI. Many more signs for him than for Kamala. But I believe in the silent majority, people afraid to express their true feelings who will vote Democratic in private, saying nothing. Hester Werner

What a wonderful straight forward, clear and convincing explanation of the dangers of Trump and the important reasons to vote for the Harris/Walz ticket! I just wish there was a way to get this message to those Trump supporters who need to read it.

I did share it on Facebook and noticed that one of my "friends" had already shared my post. The problem is that pretty much everyone I know hates Trump so it is "preaching to the choir"!

I prefer speaking out even if only the choir is listening. At least they know they are not alone.

I also live in "Rump Country" and you captured my feelings perfectly. I wouldn't dare to put up a yard sign for anyone on any level of the upcoming election that wasn't a Republican. It is a sorry state of affairs. And thank you for the reminder that there is still beauty in our world and we all should take the time to enjoy the simple pleasures of a flower or a hummingbird or.......even a fluffy cloud.
