We must not normalize this behavior, in politics or anywhere else.

Because what we accept is what we are willing to lose.

We cannot accept lying, lack of integrity, cowardice, cruelty, lack of character, confusion, and unpredictability.

It is not appropriate to accept hatred of Hillary Clinton as an excuse to support such behaviors.

We must be ever more vigilant against the popularity of TV shows like Roseanne and talking heads on cable news talk shows.

They must understand. We will never accept these treacherous and deceitful ideas as "normal".

If only that, the citizens of the USA would be unanimous in their full-throated (and full-voted) rejection of Dirty Donny* and his corrupt cabal of KGOP republican comrades.
