It’s hard to stay completely calm these days.

With our neighbour, the Felon-in-Chief, spouting ridiculous rhetoric.

I am so tired of reading about his ignorance and hate.

There are no words strong enough to describe what a vile person he is.

And the fact that people voted for that guy.

It’s like voting for an angry Homer Simpson.

He’s so effing stupid and pathetically insecure.

Anyone that has to keep telling the world how smart he is isn’t smart.

Intelligent people don’t need to tell you that they’re smart.

That’s the guy you want running your country?

It would be horrible enough if he stayed in his lane.

But he has to go poking around the rest of the world.

Fawning over dictators.

Breaking treaties.

Threatening allies.

Blatantly racist, misogynistic, and cruel.

It’s beyond despicable.

It’s too bad.

I’ve got family and friends there.

People I love.

But thinking about that place just makes me angry.

It is out of my control.

I can’t do anything.

Except put my elbows up.

Like a lot of folks, I won’t visit that country while it’s under his rule.

I’ll keep checking the labels and buy Canadian.

And I’ll keep hoping that his reckoning will come soon.
