the polls and the people

From my perspective, polling doesn't count for much.  Trump's approval rating is in the toilet and yet he still carrying on like it is his world, hemisphere and kingdom.  We all know that is handlers are worn out and afraid of gettin' canned.  That tells a lot about their integrity.

As we speak, there is a major winter storm for which FEMA is not prepared, cciting  various reasons such as "lack of funding or direction."  All of the money is being spent on ICE enforcement, with a couple or five military takeovers around the globe.  It is all funny money at this point.  

There are people who can step up and stop this madness but thet won't.  That is the tragedy,  What is happening in our country is not a partisan issue, but a humanitarian one.  When is enough enough?

I totally understand that everybody wants to think about happy shit...I do too.  The truth is that sticking your head in the sand and being a party liner just doesn't work if you have a conscience.  Either side.

Bernie Sanders is my political hero, mostly because he speaks his mind as an independent.  I have a bleached out sweatshirt that I bought prior to the 2016 election that I still wear on cold days like this one.  

I am kinda sorta like a toddler now, going to sleep early and long then waking up in the dark.  I never know what a day will bring but I have faith that it will be good.  Every day that I wake up to an America that is fighting back, it gives me hope.  This shit is not normal, I don't care who you are.  

I live in a food desert about 15 miles from the closest grocery store.  I do have a home with electricity (so far) to cook what I have stockpiled from instacart orders.  That is my new crack.

If I were asked to be honest right now I can do that without a polygraph  I have one of those faces and voices that can't tell a lie, which is why I suck at poker.

Y'all stay warm and safe and keep the faith ^j^
