Political Discord - and fear to voice an opinion

We are almost half way through this 2017 year - and well beyond the first 100 days of Trump being in office.  And I sit silently in fear.

There is so much anger and hatred for this president - and violence.  Marches against him, riots even.  Those actions have created a landscape full of more fear than anything one stupid person has said. 

I did not vote for this President - but I support my country. Even when they make some dumb choices, I am an american.  I was not a fan of Obama what so ever. That had nothing at all to do with the pigment of his skin, but I know so many used that as a reason. "OH, you don't like Obama, then you must be racist." Please - lets present a better argument than that. What I didn't like about Obama is that he created this so called health care bill - and made it mandatory - and not at all affordable.   As a person with a chronic illness, I have to have insurance coverage.  Just insulin alone - for 1 month would be $846 if I had to pay the cash price. Actually it would probably be even more because instead of 3 vials of rapid acting insulin I would need two rapid and two long acting per month.   Did we the people get to vote on this health care bill? No we did not.  And the rules that were implemented as they got the health care act into place has created struggles.  Now more than ever I have to fight for just basic things to sustain my life.  Dealing with insurance is exhausting - and the Affordable care act made it worse - even for someone with just regular group health care. 

No, I am not a fan of  Trump - but I most certainly would not of wanted Mrs. Clinton in office. She would of left the healthcare situation alone and done nothing to get rid of or improve upon "obama care."

But the climate of the nation scares me. When a comedian can work for a news station - and some how think that showing a severed head of our current president is ok, then we are in trouble.  Folks spoke out against Obama but they didn't use the threatening tactics they are using now. Alright, you don't like the current president. You are not alone. Instead of complaining about the generalized stupidity, then do something about it. Do something to improve the situation. 

I am not a political person - I don't verse myself on what capital hill does. I know that most of the figure heads in office are just puppets for those who have deep pockets.  But I too can do something about it the current situation of our country.  

I can agree to disagree with you - and not use that against you. I can still be respectful towards you, all I ask is that you do the same - and we can remain friends.

Thank you,

Mishelle
