That the current Oval Office occupant is seriously mentally ill is now a given. Whether openly

acknowledged or just quietly accepted, it is a part of "the way things are" that Trump is "not right". Under his "leadership", both patriotism and religious faith have been sullied and perverted in ways no one would have dared imagine prior to his candidacy. This person behaves as though he creates facts by lying them into existence and destroys the truth by labelling it "fake news"

Though the sheer volume of his lies and the unplumbed depth of his moral depravity make it exhausting to oppose his insanity in a consistent and meaningful way, WE MUST PERSIST! We must prevail. We must overcome.

This is not right. This is not normal. This will not stand.

Nothing is more urgent, more necessary, for our nation's political health and our very survival as a democracy than the removal of Donald Trump from power.

Nothing.

Call the Senate and stop the Tax Scam now and spread the word. I want to see the 1% get screwed for once and it will screw the fucking moron and his idiot family too...that is a great deal no matter how you look at it!
At the bottom to find events, phone scripts, and other facts to share. We must spread the word. The timing is crucial and we are almost out of time. Thanks!
Call all of them. All the numbers start with (202)224-****
Corker (TN) 3344
McCain (AZ) 2235
Flake (AZ) 4535
Collins ( ME)2523
Heller (NV)6244
Murkowski (AK)6665
Moran (KS)6521
Johnson(WI)5323
Young (IN)5623

Call them all. If you go to Zillow for the individual STATE you can get a local address and zip to use in case the senator's phone staffer needs validation that you are a voting constituent. It works and they NEVER check. I have done it with over 400 calls in the past year. It literally takes two minutes to Google Zillow. Your phone area code doesn't matter due to cell phones.

his reversal on the p*ssy grabber tape not being him, after he admitted it WAS him and he apologized last year, I think his numbers might start going back down. He can’t seem to stop stumbling over his two left feet. Especially after he has crammed them in his mouth!

"Under his "leadership", both patriotism and religious faith have been sullied and perverted in ways no one would have dared imagine prior to his candidacy."

Since the Nixon years the GOP has been sullying both patriotism and religious faith. They've become the anti-democracy. Their gerrymandering, voter suppression, and dirty tricks have made them a domestic terrorist organization, in my opinion. This isn't anything new to the scene. I must admit though, that they have kicked it into over-drive since Russia installed tRump in the White House.
Sorry, I thought I should clarify that sentence in your post. The rest of it is spot-fucking-on!
