Birds of a Feather

My mom originally taught me the old rhyme:

Birds of a feather flock together.

This means, of course, that you tend to associate with and relate to people like you.

Take Trump, for example. Alienates all of the U.S.'s closest allies, all the most free, democratic countries in the world. Starts what looks to become trade wars with our closest trading partners -- Canada for goodness sake!

Yet he meets with Kim Jung Un, a murdering authoritarian dictator, thus legitimizing Kim on a world stage.

Trump never has a bad word to say about Putin, the thug ruler of Russia. In fact, Trump just in the last day or so, lobbied for the inclusion of Russia back into the G7 group, glossing over the fact of Russia's invasion and annexation of Ukraine's Crimean Penninsula as the reason for the expulsion of Russia from the G8.

Birds of a feather flock together. Think about it.

Also think about why only Republican office holders who are retiring from office have found some moral backbone to speak more truthfully about Trump, his policies and his statements (lies).

Oh, and if you still think that Trump is a great leader, who is doing a great job, perhaps you should watch less of the propagandist Fox News and more objective, actual real news outlets -- in fact, almost any other major news outlet.

Let's try to take back the America that was once the shining city on a hill. Let's make America great again, a world leader for freedom, truth and democracy. Dump Trump and anyone who supports his actions, policies and lies.
