SMALL PEOPLE

     No, not little people. Those are people who have short stature due to a genetic reason but can have big hearts, something not found in small people. Unfortunately, we are plagued with small people these days, much to our detriment and if someone can figure out how to reach them, make them grow - well, then call me ASAP!
     Small people are small minded. They are small souled and small hearted. Their brains seem to shrink by the day as they drop further and further into the Trump cesspool. There are people who are both small and regular people as they split themselves in two, keeping  a stranglehold on their Trump roots for they seemingly cannot admit how wrong they were and are and will be should they continue in this path.
     I look at a video of the caravan on its way from Honduras to the United States. I see hope. I see dreams. I see the future for the children walking along with their parents. I see bravery. I see immense courage. The undertaking, to walk for thousands of miles in an attempt to fulfill a dream is just mind boggling and we need to meet and greet them with something other than an incarceration and mistreatment and separation of families. We must set up a better system of immigration, recognize that like it or not, the immigration stream has shifted from Europe, Western Europe, to Latin America for the most part - at least here.
     But small people cannot accept these caravans of humanity for they fear for their own privilege, refuse to share our bounty with others, deny the facts that are evident- that no, immigrants are not the fuel of criminal statistics, that they do work, and work hard, and especially in the beginning, work at jobs that Americans will not take on.
    Small people are men who cannot bear the thought that they cannot rule over women. It is women who persist in denouncing their own, refusing to believe them because Trump does not - or so he says, anyway, - and so they claim the second place citizenship that men have afforded them.
     Small people are those who accede to Trump's behavior with the whole Khashoggi mess. Denying the evidence, the truth, refusing to hear of the torture and its aftermath because he wants to keep their trade, so to hell with morality, to hell with truth and a warning to all - if you get in trouble in some foreign country, make sure it will not adversely affect our relationship with them, for if so, Trump will sell you down the river without a second thought!
     Small people deny the evidence of their eyes, of the truth, of the signs via the weather, of a Nature gone mad and why? Because Trump says so and besides, there is money to be made in violating all our safety regulations and better yet, rescind them.
     I could go on and on re small people, but we need to find those who now have woken up and smelled that coffee, the people who voted to take Trump's name off the  building in NYC, those who campaign and call and mail and urge all to go the proper pathway this election cycle. We need to get this oh so proven with evidence tax cheat, liar, misogynist and more out of office or neutralize him and his wimpish and rudderless Republicans. We need to help them find their stature again, their souls. Before it is too late. I shudder to think what would happen should the elections not come off as we hope. I cannot even tolerate a peep at such a picture for the horror of it is overwhelming.
     So, people, you know what I am going to say. Screw the foreign governments who think they can now rule its puppet America. Disregard the Scrooges who wish to take away Social Security and Medicare. Dismiss those who cruelly wish to deny pre existing conditions any treatment. Guess the quicker one dies the better these people feel.
Do the right thing, an old but fresher than ever maxim. And how?
