You do have a way with words Tingo, authentic voice in the wild, 
I am a big fan.

Two remarks:
One, this exemplifies that nobody with any kind of conscience can "remain apolitical" - with this kind of assault on the society you live in, staying silent is not an option.
Two: Rhett is absoutely right in pointing out that the impact of Bully Economics
brings destruction to EVERYTHING!, including & especially small businesses.
The US has to realize it CANNOT SURVIVE!, as a nation or society, under this administration.
Ok so how is the entire global markets not calling for a international investigation into what's Trump's doing it's clearly insider trading all US deals and trading in US dollars should immediately be halted both income and out going like seriously there's no way somebody within the US isn't cashing in.
Immigration judge Jamee Comans has told Mahmoud Khalil's lawyer, "I’m like you Mr Van Der Hout. I’d like to see the evidence.... If he’s not removable, I’m going to be terminating this case on Friday."
