Will you stand up for Justice, or silently allow Trump to destroy America?

I did not serve in Vietnam, but am a Vietnam Era veteran who spent my time stationed in Jacksonville Florida attached to an Airdaile Squadron. I have brothers, sisters, Aunts, Uncles and a Grandfather who served this GREAT NATION (emphasis added). I trace my roots back to immigrants, and even have a few refugees in the family tree. We did not come to America, nor fight for America so that a maniacal mad man like Donald J. Trump could impose his racist, hateful ways on our nation. I have not hidden the fact that for me, for most people I know, he is NOT MY PRESIDENT. Our nation is in peril, under attack from within, the time is upon us to stand up and be counted...each of us has to decide (including elected Republicans) which side we are on...the side of good and justice, or the side of evil?

Hillary Clinton was correct when she coined the phrase, "A basket of deplorables", Trump and his racist, bigoted, lawless followers must be stopped. We can stop much of Trump's agenda with the help of just three Republican Senators...question is, are there three GOP Senators with enough spine to cross party lines for the sake of America? McCain, what sayeth thou? Where is your leadership in our nation's time of need, or are you going to strike out like the "Mighty Casey"?

Citizens, too many of you stayed home on election day, thus handing the nuclear codes to a creature far more evil and nefarious than even Hitler. Donald J. Trump has done more in one week to move America down the road to becoming a facist state than Hitler accomplished in his first year in office, and it is up to us to stop him, or each of us will soon become a victim of his dictatorial ways. Will you silently march too the internment camps with your loved ones in tow, or stand up and fight for the "Land of the free, and the home of the brave?

Putting a few thousand people in front of the White House is not enough...we need marchers by the millions, we must exericise our "First Amendment" rights, and we must leave no doubt in the minds of Republican Congressmen/Women and Senators that "we the people" will destroy their party at the ballot box in 2018 if they continue to allow physcho Trump unfettered rein to destroy what until his election WAS A GREAT NATION. It is time to restore sanity to the White House, which means it is time to start the impeachment proceedings to remove Donald J. Trump from office.

Please, for the sake of America, stand up, be heard, we must be the resistence.
