I don't know, Andrew. I grew up in the 60's and 70's. I said the pledge of allegiance, sang the national anthem, God Bless America, and dove under my desk during Thermonuclear war drills. I love baseball and apple pie. Not grits though. I hold onto that America. I am a hunter, a grower, a Christian. America seems far removed from what it was. I played and fought with black kids and white kids alike. I've worked my whole life with the same.
Andrew M. can barely contain himself from outright calling me things, derogatory things that are barely covered by his hyperbole and rhetoric. I saw that kind of hate from the Commie Unions in the steel mill in East Chicago where I worked. I detested it then and I detest it now. So no, not all of us are America. So, if you hate this country, hate the people who work, go to church, pay their bills and taxes, vote for love of country instead of being a Commie sympathizer whose warped ideals are totally unrelatable out here in fly-over country, then it's pretty hard to find common ground with such.
I thought I had answered you early on but here goes.
Any Person in charge of anything can be catastrophically bad in their given or elected position. Trump is no different than anyone else. My job is to keep an eye on him personally, through my elected representatives and through my prayers to God. Not necessarily in that order. Why do you wish for more than that? Do you wish him ill to the point of destroying the country just to prove your point? I hope not.
Just what is it do you want, Andrew?
I only know Pound through his poems, his Cantos. I like his trimeters. I don't want to know his politics. He's dead.
